For legislation to abolish the death tax. Revenue.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to eliminate the "death tax," which is a tax levied on the transfer of a deceased person's assets to their heirs. Specifically, it seeks to repeal Chapter 65C of the General Laws, the section of existing law that governs this tax. By repealing this chapter, the bill aims to abolish the death tax altogether, meaning that estates would no longer be subject to this particular form of taxation upon the owner's death.
