This bill amends the observance of Gold Star Mother's Day, changing it to Gold Star Mother's and Family's Day, which will now be celebrated on the last Sunday in September instead of the first Sunday after Easter. The bill recognizes and honors all mothers and families who have lost loved ones while serving in the United States armed forces. Additionally, it urges citizens, cities, towns, and municipalities to observe this day with appropriate events.

Furthermore, the bill designates the Honor and Remember Flag as a state symbol of remembrance for those who died in the line of duty or as a result of their service. The governor is mandated to display this flag daily at the New Hampshire state veterans cemetery in Boscawen, ensuring it is flown in the most junior order of precedence. The flag will be provided at no cost to the state. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage, specifically on September 30, 2025.
