to Veterans, Military Affairs, & Public Protection (H)
Summary
The bill changes Kentucky’s veteran bonus formula, paying $9 for each month of domestic service and $15 for each month served abroad, with caps of $300 and $500 respectively. It also specifies that if a veteran dies, the bonus goes to the first surviving beneficiary, and provides a flat $300 or $500 payment to beneficiaries of veterans killed in the line of duty or who die from service‑connected injuries during certain conflict periods. These changes aim to clarify and limit the amount of bonus money distributed.
