A resolution honoring the 50th anniversary of the National Cemetery Administration of the Department of Veterans Affairs.
SRES 365 is a ceremonial Senate resolution commemorating the 50th anniversary of the National Cemetery Administration (NCA), established by the 1973 National Cemeteries Act. It honors the NCA's work managing 155 national cemeteries and 34 memorial sites that provide free burial benefits - including gravesites, headstones, and memorial certificates - to over 4 million veterans and their families. The resolution recognizes the NCA's role in operating the Veterans Cemetery Grants Program (distributing over $1 billion to support state/tribal cemeteries) and its Veterans Legacy Program, which educates the public about veterans' service. This resolution does not create new policy or affect any specific group; it is a formal acknowledgment of the NCA's 50 years of service.
