Bill Summary
For legislation relative to protecting veterans. Veterans and Federal Affairs.
AI Summary
This bill aims to protect veterans by amending existing laws to include veterans alongside physically handicapped persons in provisions that prohibit discrimination and ensure access. Specifically, it proposes to insert the term "or veteran" after instances of "physically handicapped persons" in Section 98A of Chapter 272, and to add "or veteran status" after "disability" and "ancestry" in Sections 92A and 98 of the same chapter, respectively. These changes would extend legal protections to veterans in Massachusetts.
