This bill addresses various measures to recognize and support veterans and members of the armed forces in Connecticut, with multiple provisions affecting different areas of state law. The bill establishes November as Veterans' Month, expands special motor vehicle registration options for veterans (including specific provisions for woman veterans and members of the Hmong Laotian special guerilla units), creates commemorative license plates for "The Borinqueneers" (a Puerto Rican infantry regiment), and introduces several provisions to support military families.
