Dear Neighbors,
Last week, I welcomed a group of students from a local YMCA to the capital for a tour. It?s always great to spend time with young people and share my thoughts and experiences from St. Paul with them.
Thanks for visiting!
Veterans Bonus Pay Available
This year, the legislature approved a Veterans Bill that included service bonuses to post-9/11 era veterans and Gold Star Families. Previously, Minnesota has given bonuses to service members for other conflicts including WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. Because of the withdrawal of forces from Afghanistan in 2021, post-9/11 veterans are now eligible to receive these bonuses.
The application period has officially opened, and the last day to apply is June 30, 2024, unless the funds have been exhausted prior to that date.
You can find the application and more information about the program?here.
Staying in Touch
Because of campaign finance rules, today?s newsletter will be the last until November. While you will not be receiving regular communication from me through this means, I nevertheless encourage you to continue to reach out to me or my office if you have questions, comments, or concerns.
I can be reached by phone at 651-296-4237 or via email at?[email protected].
Have a safe and fun Summer!
Paul
