SB 175 is a funding bill that allocates $291.5 million for Michigan's Department of Military and Veterans Affairs for fiscal year 2025-2026. It directly provides funding for Michigan National Guard operations (including training and facilities), veterans service agencies (through county grants and administration), and veterans homes (like Chesterfield, Grand Rapids, and Jacobetti facilities). The bill specifies funding sources including federal military revenues, state general funds, and special revenue streams like veterans license plate fees. This appropriation act does not create new programs but authorizes existing department spending for staffing, operations, and capital maintenance.
