Hawai‘i National Cemetery Act
To require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to establish a new national cemetery in the State of Hawai'i, and for other purposes.
This bill, HB6921, aims to establish a new national cemetery in Hawai'i. It would require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to create this cemetery, providing a final resting place for veterans in the state. The bill is intended to honor the service of veterans and ensure they have a proper burial site.
The bill would primarily affect veterans and their families in Hawai'i, offering them a nearby national cemetery. This would make it easier and more respectful to lay their loved ones to rest. The new cemetery would also serve as a memorial for all veterans who have served the nation.
HB6921 was introduced on December 23, 2025, and has since been referred to the Subcommittee on Disability Assistance and Memorial Affairs. On June 25, 2026, a subcommittee hearing was held to discuss the bill. It is currently in the early stages of the legislative process.
