Bill > H3867

This bill proposes to increase the annuity (a fixed sum of money paid to veterans with disabilities) from $2,000 to $5,000 for disabled veterans under section 6B of chapter 115 of the Massachusetts General Laws. By amending the existing law and replacing the "$2,000" figure with "$5,000" in three separate lines of the statute, the bill aims to provide increased financial support to disabled veterans and their families. This represents a 150% increase in the annuity amount, which could potentially help veterans better manage medical expenses, living costs, or other financial challenges associated with disability. The bill appears to be a straightforward legislative effort to enhance financial assistance for veterans who have been disabled during their military service.
