HB 6746 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING BUS PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION CHARGES FOR DISABLED VETERANS.

HB 6746 would amend Connecticut's Reduced Fare Transit ID program to allow disabled veterans to ride state-owned or state-controlled bus services for free. This directly affects disabled veterans who use public buses, removing fare charges for their travel. The key provision requires the Commissioner of Transportation to adjust the existing program to include disabled veterans as a qualifying group for free rides. The bill focuses on concrete policy change to expand access to transportation for this specific group.
