Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to veterans; appropriating money for a bonus for certain service members.

AI Summary

This bill appropriates $6,000 in fiscal year 2026 from the state's general fund to the commissioner of veterans affairs to provide a $1,200 bonus to specific service members who have not previously received a bonus. To be eligible, service members must have a form DD214 (a military discharge document) that confirms qualifying service or participation in a specific campaign as defined in Minnesota Statutes, section 197.79. Eligible veterans must submit their documentation to the commissioner of veterans affairs by December 31, 2028, and the appropriated funds will remain available until June 20, 2029. This bill appears to be targeting service members who may have been overlooked in previous bonus programs, ensuring that additional veterans are recognized and financially supported for their military service.
