Bill Summary
Relative to the definition of veteran regarding eligibility for distinctive registration plates. Transportation.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to expand the definition of "veteran" for the purpose of eligibility for distinctive vehicle registration plates in Massachusetts. Specifically, it would include individuals who are entitled to or would be entitled to retired pay for non-regular military service under Chapter 1223 of Title 10 of the United States Code, even if they do not qualify for other veterans' benefits. The bill aims to honor these individuals as veterans and allow them to obtain the special registration plates, though they would not be entitled to any other benefits based on this designation.
