HCS/HB 1746 - Current law provides that the General Assembly shall encourage the development of any veterans' programs related to outreach and education about the historical significance of veteran service. This act removes provisions related to outreach, and also provides that the Lieutenant Governor, rather than the Veterans' Commission, shall administer the provisions of the act.

This act also provides that the Lieutenant Governor, rather than the Veterans' Commission, shall administer the Veterans' Historical Education Fund, which shall be used solely to fund veterans' education programs, as provided by this act.
