Veteran Burial Benefit Correction Act

This bill would change the amount the Secretary of Veterans Affairs pays toward burial and funeral expenses when a veteran dies from a service-connected disability. It would raise the payment from $2,000 to $3,000. It would also require the Secretary to increase the amount each fiscal year by the percentage rise in the Consumer Price Index, rounded to the nearest dollar.
