Governor Signs Bill To Help Military Families During Transfers

Des Moines — Governor Kim Reynolds signed a bill into law this week designed to help military families.


The bill also helps military spouses transfer their professional licenses when assignments change and they have to move.


United States Airforce Secretary Heather Wilson joined the governor for the bill signing.


Wilson says she has talked to her counterparts and it is an issue across the services.


U-S Senator Joni Ernst was also at the signing. She is a veteran who knows what families go through.


Ernst says Iowa’s bill can be used as a model for the rest of the country.


The governor signed the bill at the Iowa Air National Guard Base in Des Moines.
