The bill addresses the capacity and geographic reach of national cemetery benefits for veterans and their families.
- 02Opposes continuing resolution appropriations measuresMcClain voted against H.R.5860, the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2024 and Other Extensions Act, casting her vote in opposition to her party's majority position on that measure. The bill passed and became law. She has also voted against S.2861, the Billie Jean King Congressional Gold Medal Act, similarly diverging from the majority of her party on that vote.
- 03Seeks mapping and environmental study of Great LakesMcClain sponsored H.R.2731, the Great Lakes Mapping Act of 2025, a reintroduced measure referred to committee.
