Crowder Bill to Expand Veterans Cemetery Passes Committee
February

2013
Yesterday, Senator Larry Crowder’s (R-Alamosa) bill to expand the Colorado State Veterans Cemetery in Homelake passed the Senate State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee.
“As Colorado’s oldest veterans’ cemetery, I am proud to expand this hallowed and historic ground so it can be a final resting place for our fallen soldiers,” said Crowder, the sponsor of Senate Bill 40. “Expanding this cemetery will provide greater comfort to the families and citizens of Colorado as they honor their sons and daughters who served.”
Presently, there are only three more burial plots available. The United Veterans Committee (UVC), Colorado’s largest veterans group, testified in support of the bill.
The bill now moves to the Appropriations Committee.
