The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 202, seeks to authorize the issuance of state bonds to honor the service and sacrifice of Philippine-American War veterans. Specifically, the bill empowers the State Bond Commission to issue bonds not exceeding a total of three hundred thousand dollars. The proceeds from these bonds will be allocated to the Department of Veterans Affairs for the purpose of commemorating these veterans as part of the Connecticut State Veterans Memorial located in Minuteman Park, Hartford.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to facilitate the bond issuance process. The primary aim of this legislation is to provide necessary funding to ensure that the contributions of Philippine-American War veterans are recognized and memorialized appropriately within the state.
