House File 2368 H-8055 Amend House File 2368 as follows: 1 1. Page 1, after line 2 by inserting: 2 < Sec. ___. NEW SECTION . 546B.1 Legislative findings and 3 intent. 4 The general assembly finds and declares that the practice of 5 using the allure of untapped benefits from the United States 6 department of veterans affairs to market products and services 7 substantially affects the public interest and that this 8 practice may impact the ability of veterans or their surviving 9 spouses to appropriately plan their finances and for their 10 care. The general assembly further finds that the lack of 11 regulation of persons who provide advice related to veterans’ 12 benefits is inadequate to address unfair and deceptive use and 13 marketing of financial planning options that are potentially 14 detrimental to veterans and their spouses and families. 15 Therefore, it is the intent of the general assembly to 16 restrict, consistent with federal law, how individuals receive 17 compensation and remuneration for providing assistance with 18 veterans’ benefit-related services and to encourage certain 19 disclosures by individuals offering veterans’ benefit-related 20 services. > 21 2.
