Relating to Military Incentive Program
SB 204 amends West Virginia's Military Incentive Program to extend eligibility to all veterans (not just Vietnam/Korean conflict veterans or specific disabled veterans) and updates program definitions. It designates WorkForce West Virginia as the sole agency administering the program and establishes rulemaking authority. The bill updates key terms like "economically disadvantaged" to align with current federal poverty standards and removes era-specific restrictions. These changes aim to simplify access to the program, which provides tax credits to private employers hiring eligible veterans.
