Vets turn out to support Veterans Services Division
David Brasuell, head of the state Division of Veterans Services, has plenty of fans at his budget presentation to lawmakers today - the room is packed with veterans. "We recognize your daunting task of setting a budget in these difficult times," Brasuell told lawmakers. Veterans Services got $1.53 million in state general funds this year; the governor's recommendation for next year is $1.35 million.
