This bill changes the South Dakota Veterans Council by expanding its membership from six specific organizations to seven representatives, adding the National American Indian Veterans as a new voting member. The bill also makes quarterly consultations between the Department of Veterans Affairs and the council a requirement rather than optional, ensuring the council provides regular recommendations on budgets, legislation, and veterans programs.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
