AB 587 – Changes the Composition of The 15-Member Student Aid Commission to Include A Member of the Public with Knowledge and Experience with U.S. Armed Forces Veterans

Existing law establishes a 15-member Student Aid Commission, which includes three public members. The Student Aid Commission is responsible for managing state-approved student financial aid programs for postsecondary students.

AB 587 amends existing law. The bill replaces one of the public members with an individual who has knowledge, expertise, or experience in accessing educational benefits for U.S. Armed Forces veterans. The replacement will occur at a public member’s term expiration.

(AB 587 amends Section 69510 of the Education Code.)
