Summary

This legislation repeals the rule that stopped new awards of the Douglas J.J. Peters Veterans Scholarship after June 30, 2030, and removes the restriction on renewing scholarships for recipients who received an initial award before that date. It keeps the existing eligibility criteria for veterans, active service members, and their families, and maintains the scholarship’s funding and administration structure. The change ensures continued financial support for eligible Maryland students who served in the Afghanistan or Iraq conflicts.
