How about cutting some cost for Disabled Vets, they get help on some other State license, ( car or truck and hunting license ) and I think there should be something passed to help them with the CHL.

How about free...I'm not disabled by an act of war, but I am a veteran, and I can be totally supportive of that idea...
We're going to have quite a few people with that status, considering what we are taking care of these days...

Reduced or free would be a nice idea I think. We did get the CHL for military members under 21 passed. I think this idea would fly as well.

Good idea. NON-vet but totally supportive.

As a DV myself, I am fully supportive of this.

I would add, include the Purple Heart recipients in the discount as well as the disabled Veterans. Or, just include ALL military veterans - they all served, after all. "Freedom isn't Free" - and I wouldn't mind my taxes subsidizing something like this for those folks whose livelihood was keeping this country free for folks like me.

I would gladly pay a little more for my license so the Veterans catch a break! They have only offered up their lives in defense of our country, the founding fathers missed that one! Of course backthen EVERYONE was a vet!

Me too, and to be honest I don't need it, but I know so many who need every break they can get.

I support it, but see no reason anyone should need to pay MORE to support it. I think we can just write it off.
