Hagman's Bill Granting Financial Relief For Members Of The Armed Forces Goes To Governor's Desk
Assembly Bill 2500 will exclude active duty military personnel from paying late renewal fees for State licenses
Sacramento- Assemblyman Curt Hagman's bill to provide financial relief for active duty military personnel cleared the State Legislature and heads to the Governor's Desk for his signature.
"This is a good and just measure to provide some aid for California military men and women," stated Assemblyman Hagman.
Under California law when a member of the armed forces who is on active duty misses the deadline for renewal on one of their business state licenses, a late fee must be paid. AB 2500 would exempt military personnel on active duty from having to pay such a fee.
"I don't believe we should punish the courageous men and women of the armed forces who put their lives at risk on our behalf everyday. It is unfair to make them pay a fine when they're busy defending our freedoms. I'm happy my colleagues agreed with me and I look forward to the Governor's signature" said Hagman.
