Women Airforce Service Act Passed by Veterans Committee

On February 25, the House Veterans Affairs Committee passed, by voice vote, several bills, including the Women Airforce Service Pilot Arlington Inurnment Restoration Act (H.R. 4336).

Sponsored by Rep. Martha McSally (R-AZ), the measure directs the Department of the Army to ensure that the cremated remains of women who served as Women’s Air Forces Service Pilots are eligible for burial, with full military honors, in Arlington National Cemetery.
