Fallen Servicemembers Religious Heritage Restoration Act

Chamber Passed·9/16/25

The Fallen Servicemembers Religious Heritage Restoration Act aims to correct the misidentification of American-Jewish servicemembers buried overseas.

The Fallen Servicemembers Religious Heritage Restoration Act mandates the American Battle Monuments Commission to establish a program to identify American-Jewish servicemembers buried in U.S. military cemeteries overseas under markers that incorrectly represent their religion. The program, known as the Fallen Servicemembers Religious Heritage Restoration Program, will run for the first 10 fiscal years after the act's enactment. The Commission will contract with a nonprofit organization to carry out this purpose, with priority given to those with demonstrated capability and expertise.
