What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Veterans Affairs may make grants from

a certain biennial appropriation to nonprofit organizations in order to provide

financial assistance or other services to veterans and their dependents. The grants

may total up to $250,000 annually, with a limit of $25,000 per recipient. This bill

requires DVA to make from the same appropriation a $20,000 grant in the 2022-23

fiscal year to the Wisconsin Lao Veterans of America, Inc. in order to provide

financial assistance or other services to Hmong-Lao individuals that assisted the

United States during the Vietnam War.
