What’s in it

This bill relates to holiday time off for Veterans Day. Currently, Code section 91A.5A uses the term “veteran” as defined in Code section 35.1, which, among other designated categories of individuals, includes former and current members of the reserve forces of the United States and the Iowa national guard who have served at least 20 years and who were discharged under honorable conditions. The bill provides that the term “veteran” be defined as in Code section 35.1, but shall additionally include members of the reserved forces of the United States or the Iowa national guard, regardless of the time served, who continue to serve or who were discharged under honorable conditions.
