What’s in it

AI summary Iowa residents who served on active duty and became disabled or were prisoners of war can now get a lifetime license to hunt for fur. To get this license, veterans must pay a fee to the Department of Natural Resources. The Department of Veterans Affairs will help check that each person's military status is correct.1

Read the official explanation

DNR shall prepare an application to be used by a person requesting a lifetime fur harvester license under the bill. The department of veterans affairs shall assist DNR in verifying the status or claims of applicants.
