AI Summary
This bill, called the "Justice for America's Veterans and Survivors Act of 2025", requires the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to submit an annual report to the House and Senate Veterans' Affairs Committees that provides detailed data about veterans' deaths. The report must include specific information for each veteran who dies during the reporting period, such as whether they had a total service-connected disability rating, their primary and secondary causes of death, and whether they died by suicide related to a service-connected total disability. Additionally, the report must provide a total count of veterans who died from each identified primary cause of death. This legislation aims to create a comprehensive system for tracking and understanding veteran mortality, which could help inform policy decisions and potentially improve veterans' healthcare and support services. The bill amends title 38 of the United States Code by adding a new section (Section 534) to mandate this annual reporting requirement.
