Bill > SB809

This bill amends Section 890 of the Military and Veterans Code to clarify the definition of "veterans" for the purposes of educational assistance for dependents. Specifically, it changes the phrasing from "As used in" to "For purposes of" and replaces "such" with "that" when referring to periods of war service or hostilities, ensuring a more precise and modern interpretation of the law. The bill also maintains the existing definitions for "dependent of a veteran" and "induction period," which outline who qualifies as a dependent and the specific timeframes considered induction periods for military service.
