Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
The Medal of Honor Access and Liaison Act would grant Medal of Honor recipients special identification cards that allow them unaccompanied access to any military installation and the Pentagon. The bill would also establish a new Department of Defense Medal of Honor Liaison position, appointed by the Secretary of Defense, to serve as a central point of contact for Medal of Honor recipients and their families. The liaison would coordinate benefits and services across the military branches and with the Veterans Affairs Department, handle replacement of military decorations, standardize protocols for Medal of Honor recipients, conduct public outreach, and advise the Secretary of Defense on service opportunities for these recipients. The bill does not specify funding amounts or timelines for implementation. This legislation primarily affects the approximately 70 living Medal of Honor recipients and the Department of Defense operations.
