Iowa Veterans Trust Fund (1443XD) - Veterans Affairs, Department of

This bill (1443XD) amends Iowa's Veterans Trust Fund rules by raising the threshold for distributing lottery funds from $50 million to $75 million. When the fund balance is below $75 million, interest and the first $500,000 from lottery revenues are allocated to veterans services programs. It eliminates previous distribution requirements for fund balances between $50 million and $75 million and stops all lottery fund transfers when the trust fund reaches $75 million or more, redirecting those funds to county veteran affairs programs instead. The changes directly affect the Iowa Department of Veterans Affairs and local county veteran services programs.
