A bill to require that national cemeteries be open to visitors on legal public holidays.

This bill would require every national cemetery administered by the Department of Defense (DoD), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), or the National Park Service (NPS) to be open to visitors on the legal public holidays listed in 5 U.S.C. 6103(a) (i.e., federal holidays). In other words, on federal holidays these national cemeteries must be accessible to the public for visitation. The bill does not specify hours, staffing, security, or funding specifics, so implementation would depend on how the agencies choose to operate during those holidays. The purpose is to ensure public access to national cemeteries for reflection and honoring veterans and fallen service members on holidays.
