Bill > H3823

This bill modifies Section 3F of chapter 60 of the Massachusetts General Laws to expand the authorized uses of veterans assistance funds in cities and towns. Specifically, the bill adds "legal" and "housing" to the existing list of permitted uses for these funds, which previously included transportation. This change would allow local governments more flexibility in how they can use funds designated to support veterans, enabling them to provide legal services and housing assistance in addition to transportation support. The modification aims to broaden the types of assistance that can be offered to veterans at the local level, potentially helping to address more comprehensive needs of veterans in the community.
