This bill amends Iowa Code by repealing Section 37A.1, which previously classified the unauthorized sale, trade, or transfer of veterans commemorative property as a simple misdemeanor. The section also established criteria for the Department of Veterans Affairs to grant authorization for such actions and provided the department with rulemaking authority to manage the provisions of the code.
Additionally, the bill removes a related subsection from Section 35A.5, which required the department to authorize any sale, trade, or transfer of veterans commemorative property in accordance with the now-repealed Section 37A.1. By eliminating these provisions, the bill effectively removes the regulatory framework surrounding the transfer of veterans commemorative property.
Statutes affected: Introduced: 35A.5, 37A.1
