Plain-language change summary

The amended bill now accepts the federal Veterans Identification Card as proof of identity for those wishing to adopt pets, replacing the requirement for a Department of Defense form DD-214. This change helps streamline the adoption process for veterans, making it easier for them to provide necessary identification. Additionally, the regulations around pet adoption still allow shelters to limit adoptions to one dog or cat every two years. This is important for ensuring that they match potential adopters with pets responsibly.
