Bill summary

Appropriates $10 million in recurring funds each year of the 2025-27 biennium from the General Fund to the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (Department) for a grant program for eligible nonprofit Disabled American Veterans chapters to renovate and expand their facilities, and provide additional resources to disabled veterans. Limits awards to one grant in each year of the biennium of up to $1 million. Sets out parameters for the Department to follow in awarding the grants. Allows the funds to remain available for grants instead of reverting to the General Fund at the end of the biennium. Requires a report in even-numbered years, beginning in 2026, on the total number of grants awarded, by county, and name of each eligible chapter to which a grant was awarded, by county, to the specified NCGA committees and division. Effective July 1, 2025.
