Summary

Bruce Vento Stand Down Act - Expresses the sense of Congress that several branches of the Armed Forces and the National Guard have provided and should continue to provide valuable service in the delivery of services to veterans at Stand Down events (events to provide food, shelter, health care, benefit certification and other help to veterans in need of assistance). Commends veterans' organizations for their outstanding contributions to these events and encourages their continued efforts. Authorizes the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to provide outreach and other services as well as property and resources in support of these events. Requires the Secretary to establish a pilot program to conduct (alone or collaboratively) at least one Stand Down event in each State each year.
