(1) The general assembly finds that restitution
payments made to Japanese Americans pursuant to the "Civil Liberties Act" (Pub.L. 100-383)
were intended to redress the injustice done to United States citizens and resident aliens of
Japanese ancestry who were incarcerated during World War II. The general assembly also finds
that pursuant to such federal law, such payments are already excluded from state social service
programs described in 31 U.S.C. sec. 3803 (c)(2)(c) which are funded by federal moneys.
(2) The state department shall exclude from consideration, when determining income or
resources for purposes of determining eligibility or benefit amounts in any state-funded program
under this title, moneys paid to eligible individuals pursuant to the "Civil Liberties Act", Pub.L.
100-383.
