This bill proposes the creation of the Agent Orange Veterans Service Medal to honor veterans who were exposed to Agent Orange during their service. This medal would recognize their service and the health challenges they faced as a result of exposure to this chemical.

The medal would be awarded to veterans who served in Vietnam or on nearby waters, and who were exposed to Agent Orange. It would be a way to acknowledge and honor their sacrifices and the lasting impacts of their service.

HB8194 was introduced on April 2, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on Armed Services. This is the first step in the legislative process, and the bill is now under review by the committee.
