i <br />GG -8: Support adequately funding the North Carolina Mili- <br />tary Affairs Commission so it may continue to address the <br />statewide priorities it has established. <br />• The NC Military Affairs Commission received funding in the <br />last budget to support the military presence in the state, co- <br />ordinate with military leaders, economic developers and sup- <br />port groups, and prepare the state for the next BRAC round; <br />however it is not supported by any recurring appropriations. <br />GG -9: Seek legislation to increase state funding of local <br />county Veterans Service offices. <br />• Counties used to receive a small supplement for veterans af- <br />fairs offices. This was eliminated in the last budget. <br />• With an increase of veterans returning from foreign conflicts, <br />an increase in resources would help support state and local <br />veterans service offices throughout the state. <br />
