Bill > SB00633

This bill establishes a working group to investigate the potential for providing free public transportation on state-owned or state-controlled buses for veterans. The working group will be composed of representatives from the Department of Transportation and the Department of Veterans Affairs, and they are tasked with studying the feasibility and potential impact of eliminating transportation fees for veterans. By December 31, 2025, the group is required to submit a report with legislative recommendations to the joint standing committees responsible for transportation and veterans' affairs. This study aims to explore ways to potentially reduce financial burdens on veterans by providing them with free access to public transportation services, which could be a meaningful form of support for those who have served in the military.
