Bill Summary
A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to the Department of Veterans' Affairs; to amend sections 55-601 and 55-606, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska; to change the membership of the Commission on Military and Veteran Affairs; to change when a report is required; to eliminate provisions related to a lease agreement for a veterans home and provisions regarding utility services; to repeal the original sections; and to outright repeal sections 80-328 and 80-330, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the composition and reporting requirements of the Commission on Military and Veteran Affairs and removes provisions related to veterans' homes. Specifically, it expands the non-voting, ex officio members of the Commission on Military and Veteran Affairs to include additional commanders from various Air Force wings and other military entities, and it changes the reporting requirement from an annual report to a report that is prepared only when requested by the Governor or when the commission decides it's necessary, eliminating the previous November 15 deadline. The bill also repeals sections of Nebraska law that dealt with lease agreements for veterans' homes and utility services for those homes, effectively eliminating those specific provisions.
