A new bipartisan bill would create the first federal grant program for firefighter, paramedic, and dispatcher mental health care.

Three bipartisan Minnesota veteran laws take effect Aug. 1: honorary diplomas for Korean and Vietnam vets, a National Guard pay raise, and wider burial eligibility.

A new Pennsylvania law requires funeral homes to notify counties and give veterans' families contact info for burial benefits within 96 hours, closing a gap that leaves earned VA benefits unclaimed.
