SB 1354 creates a program through Oklahoma's Department of Veterans Affairs to provide headstones or markers and burial grants for eligible Oklahoma National Guard veterans. It directly affects veterans who served six or more years in the Oklahoma National Guard, died as Oklahoma residents, were honorably discharged, and are not already eligible for federal headstones under 38 U.S.C. § 2306. The bill establishes a revolving fund (using state appropriations and donations) to cover headstone costs and burial reimbursement, with the VA developing application rules and eligibility guidelines. This program will take effect November 1, 2026, if passed.
