This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 137.375, to request that the University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum provide free access not only to disabled veterans but also to one guest accompanying them. The definition of a "disabled veteran" remains unchanged, referring to veterans certified as having a permanent service-connected disability by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or the state commissioner of veterans affairs.

To qualify for this free access, the disabled veteran must present a photo identification card that includes the term "service-connected," confirming their disability status. This amendment aims to enhance the support and accessibility for disabled veterans and their companions at the Arboretum, promoting inclusivity and recognition of their service.
