A new bill signed into law this month gives disabled veterans free hunting and fishing licences.
House Representative Wayne Schmidt said the move will make it easier for the vets to enjoy Michigan's outdoors.
"For people who have made a significant sacrifice to this country it's a small token of appreciation for protecting our nation and our freedoms."
This is just a nice way to say thanks to them for their great services and making it a bit easier because they do have some challenges when they go out and enjoy our great outdoors." Schmidt said.
The bill will takes effect March 1st 2013.
