A Resolution urging the President and Congress of the United States to address the critical issue of veteran suicides by ensuring that the Department of Veterans Affairs provides comprehensive and accurate data to inform effective prevention strategies, thereby honoring the sacrifices of all who have served.

This Pennsylvania House resolution (HR 376) urges the federal government to require the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to include National Guard and Reserve veterans' suicides in its annual suicide prevention reports. Currently, VA reports exclude these veterans due to service criteria (like 90 consecutive days of active duty), and misclassify some deaths, creating inaccurate data. The resolution demands the VA adopt comprehensive data collection to better understand suicide risks and develop effective prevention strategies for all veterans. It specifically calls for including National Guard/Reserve suicides and correcting misclassified deaths in VA reports.
