What’s in it

AI summary Iowa veterans who became disabled while serving on active duty in the military can get a lifetime trapping license. The Department of Natural Resources will set the price for this license and create an application for people to use. To make sure applicants qualify, the Department of Veterans Affairs will help verify their military service and disability status.1
