Veterans with 100 percent service-connected disability allowed to obtain a license for a fish, house, dark house, or shelter without paying a fee.
This bill amends Minnesota law to waive fees for specific fishing licenses for veterans with 100% service-connected disabilities. It directly affects Minnesota veterans who have a 100% disability rating from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, as defined by federal law. The provision allows them to obtain licenses for a fish house, dark house, or shelter without paying fees, using a VA disability letter or a driver's license with a designated disability indicator as proof. The change modifies existing statute 97A.441, subdivision 5, to include these fee waivers for eligible veterans.
