Bill > SF3302

This bill requests the University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum to provide free access not only to disabled veterans but also to one guest accompanying the disabled veteran. The bill defines a "disabled veteran" as a veteran who is certified in writing by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs or the state commissioner of veterans affairs as having a permanent service-connected disability. To qualify for the free access, the disabled veteran must present a veteran photo identification card that specifically indicates "service-connected" to verify their disability status. The Landscape Arboretum, located in Chaska, would be asked to offer unlimited free entry to the disabled veteran and their guest, which is a gesture of appreciation and support for veterans who have sustained service-related disabilities. By expanding the access to include a guest, the bill recognizes that disabled veterans might benefit from having companionship or assistance when visiting the arboretum.
