BILL NUMBER:S6609 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the executive law, in relation to expanding opportunities for service-disabled veteran-owned business enterprises Purpose: This bill would establish a program to increase participation of service-disabled veteran-owned business enterprises in State contracting, thereby ensuring that these most deserving individuals would be enabled to participate in the very American Dream that they have fought so valiantly, on our behalf, to preserve. Statement in Support, Summary of Provisions, Existing Law, and Prior Legislative History: This bill would establish a new program to increase opportunities for the participation of service-disabled veteran-owned business enterprises in State contracting. New York is home to more than 900,000 veterans, 72 percent of whom have served during periods of conflict. Approximately 88,000 New Yorkers served in Afghanistan or Iraq Additionally, the State is home to approximately 30,000 active duty military personnel, as well as, 30,000 National Guard and Reserve personnel. These men and women have risked their lives and, in many cases, have often suffered physical and mental health impairments in the course of protecting our freedoms
