Senate Military Adopts 5 Bills

The Senate Military Committee met at 10:00 AM today to discuss five bills, all of which were adopted and referred to an additional committee for further consideration.

These bills included SB 8, which would exempt certain military veterans from fees for the license to carry a deadly weapon. This bill was adopted by the Military Committee and advanced to the Senate Finance Committee before it will be reported to the full Senate.

The committee also approved SB 30, which would expand the expiration date of driver’s licenses for the spouses of military members. The bill was advanced to the Senate Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.

SB 114 was adopted as well, which provides eligibility for developmental disability services to people who are dependent on military members. This bill has been referred to the Senate Finance Committee.
