    Key Takeaways

    • Requires the Student Aid Commission to replace one public member with a military veteran representative.
    • Maintains the total commission membership at 15 members while adding veteran perspective.
    • Changes take effect automatically when a current public member's term expires.

    Summary

    Assembly Member Davies proposes modifying California's Student Aid Commission membership by replacing one of its three public members with a veteran of the Armed Forces who represents the veteran community. The change would take effect upon the expiration of a current public member's term.

    The Student Aid Commission, which administers state-authorized student financial aid programs, currently consists of 15 members including representatives from public and private educational institutions, student members, and public members. Under the proposed change, the commission would maintain its total membership while adjusting its composition to include veteran representation. The remaining membership structure - including positions for postsecondary institutions, students, secondary schools, and legislative appointees - would continue unchanged.
