     This bill would grant veterans who live in New Jersey and who received a general, under honorable conditions discharge from active military service the right to obtain a peddler's license.  Current law only grants this right to New Jersey veterans who received an honorable discharge from active military service.  This bill would extend this right to New Jersey veterans who were discharged under honorable conditions.

                                

 

     Grants veteran discharged under honorable conditions right to peddler's license.
