The Poppy Wall of Honor organized by USAA returned to the National Mall for the sixth year in honor of Memorial Day. The temporary installation features 600,000 poppies encased in a glass wall to remember the 600,000 military members lost in service to our country. Positioned on a grassy area to the right of the Lincoln Memorial, visitors enter on the right side of the wall, where they’re faced with stories told through writing and video focused on the impact of each life lost.

For the first time in Virginia’s history, people with past convictions will be able to have their record sealed from public view. Virginia’s General Assembly passed the record-sealing law in 2021, and now, an amended version is set to take effect July 1, 2026. Under the new law, a person with a misdemeanor or low-level felony conviction will be able to have their record sealed from public view — meaning the conviction would not show up on background checks needed for employment or housing.
