Bill > A05094

This bill requires the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to compile a list of veterans who apply for a veteran driver's license and provide that list to the Department of Veterans' Services to aid in outreach efforts. Specifically, the bill defines a veteran according to existing state law and mandates that the DMV create and maintain a current list of veterans who have obtained a veteran driver's license. The Department of Veterans' Services will then use this list to coordinate outreach efforts, ensuring that veterans and their families are informed about available state and local services. The purpose of this bill is to improve communication and service delivery to veterans by leveraging the DMV's existing licensing process to help identify and connect with veteran populations. The bill will take effect immediately upon passage, allowing for prompt implementation of these new reporting and outreach procedures.
