The General Assembly Raised Bill No. 280 proposes minor and technical revisions to existing statutes concerning veterans' and military affairs. One significant change is in section 27-102l, where the language regarding the staffing of the Office of Advocacy and Assistance is updated. The bill replaces the term "less" with "fewer" to clarify that the office must have a staff of not fewer than nineteen individuals, including at least fourteen veterans' service officers and three clerical personnel, all of whom must be veterans or have received the armed forces expeditionary medal.

Additionally, the bill establishes the "Hispanic-American Veterans of Connecticut" commemorative account, which will now be a separate, nonlapsing account rather than being within the General Fund. This account will hold funds designated for providing bilingual services and assistance to Connecticut veterans and members of the armed forces, and it allows for private donations to be deposited into the account. Both sections of the bill are set to take effect on October 1, 2026.
