Bill Summary

Relative to the veteran status of certain reservists. Veterans and Federal Affairs.

AI Summary

This bill amends the definition of "veteran" in Massachusetts law to include reservists in the armed forces who have served honorably for 20 or more years, regardless of whether their service included any active duty. Specifically, it adds this new category of reservists to the definition of "veteran" and exempts them from the requirement that veterans must have served on active duty in order to be considered a veteran. This change in the law aims to recognize the service and contributions of certain reservists who have served for an extended period, even if they did not serve in an active duty capacity.
