LANSING (WKZO) — A Muskegon County state lawmaker wants to make it easier for veterans to transfer some college-level training received in the military to universities in the state.
Representative Holly Hughes of Montague plans to introduce the bill this week and says it’s about being fair with veterans.
While some colleges and universities do offer credit for military service, often times the veterans are not told about it when they enroll, and Hughes’ bill would change that. The Republican lawmaker believes the move will help veterans get back into the workforce faster.
