What changed in the latest version
26 added · 10 removedPlain-language change summary
The amended version of SB 2125 allows for a new veterans form, the NGB-22, to be recorded without charge by the chancery clerk, just like the existing DD-214 form. Both forms will be kept safe and protected, and they are not considered public records. This change matters because it ensures that veterans and their families can access their service records confidentially and at no cost, which helps protect their personal information while also simplifying the process of obtaining important documents.
