Bill > HB132

This bill appropriates $821,000 from the State General Fund to American Legion Post 383 specifically for constructing a veterans memorial on the grounds of the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Home. The bill includes a special provision stating that this appropriation is considered a legitimate state obligation through June 30, 2026, which means the funds are committed and can be used during that timeframe. The bill will become effective either upon the governor's signature, when the time for gubernatorial review expires, or if vetoed and then subsequently approved by the legislature, on the day following legislative approval. By providing dedicated funding for a memorial honoring veterans, the bill aims to support local recognition of military service members and create a lasting tribute at a veterans' facility.
