AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Chapter 60A, Section 1 of the Massachusetts General Laws to provide an exemption from the motor vehicle excise tax for certain low-income seniors aged 65 and older. Specifically, the bill states that the motor vehicle excise tax shall not apply to a vehicle owned and registered by a citizen over the age of 65 whose annual income is at or below the federal poverty guideline, with the exemption applying to not more than one vehicle per senior citizen. Once the exemption is granted, no further evidence of eligibility is required in subsequent years, unless the assessors become aware that the senior citizen no longer satisfies the eligibility requirements.
