Doing nothing = doing better

The Legislature often does special things for veterans to show respect and thanks for their service, whether it’s a break on hunting licenses or whatever, but every now and again, the Legislature doesn’t do something for them that is even better.

Early in this session, a bill surfaced that would let veterans have put on their drivers’ licenses a hologram—not visible to the naked eye—notation that they were veterans.

Sorta cool, we guess, and it was a voluntary deal that if for some reason you wanted a near-invisible notation on your DL that you were a veteran, well, you could get it.

Luckily, that idea was scrapped.
