Veteran Headstone Honor Act

This bill would create a federal tax credit for owners and operators of private cemeteries. The credit would equal the costs they pay to attach veteran medallions, provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs, to the headstones or markers of deceased individuals for whom the medallions were requested. To claim the credit, the cemetery must certify to the Treasury that the medallion was attached and provide an itemized statement of costs. The credit would be part of the general business credit and could also be received as an elective direct payment, and it would apply to expenses paid after the law takes effect.
