Representative Mark Green Reintroduces Protecting Gold Star Spouses Act
April 6, 2021 | 
Washington, D.C. – Monday, on Gold Star Spouses Day, U.S. Representative Green introduced the Protecting Gold Star Spouses Act. The bill, which Green introduced previously in the 116th Congress, ensures that no Gold Star family will ever miss a payment during a lapse in Federal appropriations.
Representative Green said, “It’s our duty and our honor to take care of America’s Gold Star spouses and families. Our Gold Star spouses and families should never worry about whether the Federal government will fulfill its obligation to them—even during a lapse in appropriations or government shutdown. Freedom is never free.”

Wreaths Across America Volunteers place 2,950 wreaths at Kentucky Veterans Cemetery-West
Written by Maria McClure
Fort Campbell Public Affairs Office
Hopkinsville, KY – U.S. Army Spc. Aidan Sandel, 101st Airborne Division Band, stood at the ready holding his bugle Saturday, December 15th, 2018, before the Wreaths Across America remembrance wreath-laying ceremony at Kentucky Veterans Cemetery-West.
He would play “Taps” as the ceremony drew to an end.
“It is a great honor, absolutely,” Sandel said of being part of the ceremony. “‘Taps’ is kind of a precarious piece to play. There is always that little bit of worry that it will not sound right.”
To ensure he gets the notes just right, Sandel said he practices the poignant bugle call often.
