Bill > SB00775

This bill proposes to amend existing state statutes to provide free bus transportation on state-owned or state-controlled bus services for veterans. Specifically, veterans would be able to ride these buses at no cost when they present either a motor vehicle operator's license or an identity card that clearly shows their veteran status. This exemption aims to provide a benefit to veterans as a way of recognizing their military service, allowing them to use public transportation without paying the standard fees. The bill does not specify any additional conditions or limitations beyond the requirement of showing a valid form of identification that confirms veteran status. By eliminating transportation fees for veterans, the legislation seeks to offer a practical form of support and appreciation for those who have served in the military.
