Reach out to your lawmakers
Arlington National Cemetery
The bipartisan Expanding America’s National Cemetery Act, H.R. 1413, ensures the nation keeps its sacred promise to veterans and their families. ANC eventually will run out of space, and proposed eligibility reductions will end the benefit some veterans and their families have planned on for years. H.R. 1413 will provide a long-term solution to designate the “next ANC” rather than reduce the benefit.

Major Richard Star Act
Over two-thirds of Congress has supported this legislation that would provide concurrent receipt for combat-injured servicemembers. It is part of MOAA’s incremental strategy to achieve concurrent receipt for all, and it is supported across our community of veterans service organizations.

BAH Restoration Act
Servicemembers and young military families across the country are facing financial strain, and housing costs play a big role. Ask your elected officials to restore the Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) with H.R. 2537/S. 1823 in their 2025 NDAA request.

Military Spouse Hiring Act

Respect for Grieving Military Families
When a retired servicemember dies, the Defense Finance and Accounting Service recoups the last month of their retirement pay. This adds financial stress to a grieving spouse. H.R. 3232/S. 1588 would stop recoupment (as well as overdraft fees or debt) and prevent the financial shock experienced by surviving spouses.

Tricare Young Adult
TRICARE Young Adult: H.R. 1045/S. 956, the Health Care Fairness for Military Families Act, will help ensure military kids transitioning to adulthood have the same health care protections as their peers in civilian families.
