Bill > SB00632

This bill requires the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to renew driver's licenses and identity cards for veterans at Veterans' Stand Down events if those documents are set to expire within the next twelve months. A Veterans' Stand Down event is typically a one-day community event where services are provided to homeless and at-risk veterans, offering them an opportunity to access various resources in a supportive environment. By allowing veterans to renew their licenses and identity cards at these events, the bill aims to make it more convenient for veterans to maintain their important identification documents, potentially reducing barriers to accessing services and support. The proposed change would modify section 14-11k of the general statutes, streamlining the license renewal process for veterans by enabling them to complete this administrative task during an event specifically designed to support their needs.
