1 JECVO LEGISLATIVE FINAL REPORT 2018 GENERAL ASSEMBLY SESSION A Publication of the Joint Executive Council of Veterans Organizations of Kentucky (JECVO) April 21, 2018 On April 14 th one of the more contentious sessions of the Kentucky General Assembly came to a close. Despite the sometime rancorous discourse between the Administration, legislators, and citizens, progress was made on several fronts. Lawmakers approved the state s two-year budget, revised the state s ailing pension systems, and develop new revenue streams to pay for both. Not everyone was happy and the General Assembly ultimately overrode Governor Bevin s vetoes of these three important bills. But even these fixes were not enough to stem considerable concern and disappointment in the manner in which the bills were passed nor their potential negative impact on the numerous programs funded by state government. Time will tell as to the wisdom of the legislators actions. The primary legislative objective of JECVO during this session was assisting KDVA in protecting and improving the budget for the Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs. To this end, KDVA was provided a budget that its leadership said could work. Their enacted budget is as follows: DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS' AFFAIRS General Fund $25,098,600 Restricted Fund $78,959,900 TOTAL $104,058,500 General Fund $25,810,200 Restricted Funds $78,964,500 TOTAL $104,774,700 (1) Weekend and Holiday Premium Pay Incentive: The Kentucky Veterans' Centers are authorized to continue the weekend and holiday premium pay incentive for the fiscal biennium. (2) Congressional Medal of Honor Recipients - Travel and Per Diem: The Commissioner of the Department of Veterans' Affairs may approve travel and per diem expenses incurred when Kentucky residents who have been awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor attend veterans, military, or memorial events in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. (3) Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky and the Epilepsy Foundation of Kentuckiana Funding: Included in the above General Fund appropriation is $93,700 in each fiscal year for grants to the Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky and $93,700 in each fiscal year for grants to the Epilepsy Foundation of Kentuckiana to be used solely for the purpose of working with veterans who have experienced brain trauma and their families. 1
2 (4) Veterans' Service Organization Funding: Included in the above General Fund appropriation is $187,500 in each fiscal year for grants to Veterans' Service Organization programs. (5) Debt Service - Bowling Green Veterans' Center: If any debt service is required for the issuance of bonds for the Construct Bowling Green Veterans' Center capital project reauthorized in Part II, Capital Projects Budget, of this Act, it shall be deemed a necessary government expense and shall be paid from the General Fund Surplus Account (KRS ) or the Budget Reserve Trust Fund Account (KRS ). No bonds shall be sold for this project until it has been approved by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs and the Commonwealth has been notified by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs that Federal Funds are available to support this construction. (6) State Veterans Nursing Home: It is the desire of the General Assembly that any future beds allocated from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or reallocated from the Kentucky Department of Veterans' Affairs be dedicated to a state veterans nursing home in Magoffin County to serve that area. JECVO and VSO s worked diligently to see the passage of HB 425 which was introduced to fix the problem VSO posts are having with utilizing pull-tab sales at their conventions. The bill PASSED the House on March 16 th and was assigned to the Senate Licensing, Occupations, & Administrative Regulations Committee on the 20 th where it failed to get a hearing. The Committee Chairman and Senate leadership both promised that it would be heard early in the Interim Session if a new bill is filed. JECVO leadership will work to see that this occurs. The following bills impacting veterans were PASSED in this session and their final status is noted: HB 64 Rep. Lee & Moore AN ACT relating to traumatic brain injury treatment for veterans.
