The bill (S.F. No. 1893) proposes an appropriation of $500,000 for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 from Minnesota's general fund to the commissioner of veterans affairs. The funds will be granted to the Lutheran Social Services (LSS) CORE program to provide home-delivered meals to veterans living outside Hennepin and Ramsey Counties, as well as to support technical enrollment outreach and volunteer recruitment for member programs.

This appropriation is a one-time allocation, and any unspent funds from the first year can be used in the second year. Additionally, LSS CORE must submit an annual report by September 1 detailing the use of the grant money and the number of veterans and service members served. This report must be provided to the commissioner of veterans affairs and relevant legislative committee members overseeing veterans affairs policy and finance.
