Dear Neighbor, 

Veterans – I'm reaching out with an invitation to an important public hearing hosted by the Veterans' and Military Affairs Committee on Thursday, Feb. 13, at 11:30 a.m. in Room 1C of the LOB, with virtual access via Zoom and YouTube Live.
 
There will also be a FREE tour of the CT Legislative Office Building and the Capitol at 9:15 a.m.
This hearing will address several key legislative proposals directly impacting veterans, including:
  • Property Tax Exemptions (SB 1091, SB 1276) for veterans, including those who are 100% disabled
  • No-Cost Driver’s License Renewals for veterans (SB 1150) and Free Ridership on Veterans Day (HB 6728)
  • Affordable Housing for Disabled and Elderly Veterans (SB 1277, HB 6764, HB 6768)
  • Reimbursement of Fees and Specialty License Plates for veterans (HB 5787, HB 6722, HB 6734)
  • Recognition & Support Initiatives (HB 5787, 6722), including Veterans' Month designation (HB 6723) and protections against predatory benefit claims assistance (HB 6874, HB 6909)
  • Support for the CT Veterans Cemetery (HB 5117)
  • Dental Support for Veterans (HB 6755)
  • and more

Your testimony on this legislation - whether sharing personal experiences, advocating for better resources, or supporting fellow veterans - can make a significant impact. You can participate in person, via Zoom, or by submitting written testimony.
