Bill overview
This bill creates a program that gives service-disabled veteran-owned businesses a price preference when bidding on State contracts paid with State funds. State agencies will consider bids from these businesses, giving them a 10% advantage if they are the lowest bidder and meet specific requirements. The bill also clarifies definitions related to veteran status and qualified businesses, and addresses the situation where a veteran owner dies and their spouse takes over the business.
