Hello, again.  As part of the partnership with the Secretary of State’s office, we are asking libraries to share the following message about  a new veterans driver’s license designation that provides veterans with easier access to some benefits.  As always, thanks for your help!

Secretary of State announces veteran designation for licenses and ID cards

Beginning May 1, Michigan veterans can display their proof of service right on their Michigan driver's license or state ID card, making it easer to receive benefits that often go unclaimed, such as retail discounts, promotions and special offers.  The new designation is available to all honorably discharged Michigan veterans and is free of charge when renewing a state license or ID or applying for one.
