AI Summary

This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to allow veterans' organizations to operate up to 10 slot machines in their establishments, provided they obtain a limited slot machine license from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission. The bill defines a "veterans' organization" as any veterans' organization incorporated by the U.S. Congress and establishes the application, renewal, and regulatory process for these limited slot machine licenses, including registration, inspection, and testing of the slot machines by the Commission or an independent testing laboratory. The bill also clarifies that these veterans' organization establishments with limited slot machine licenses are not considered "gaming establishments" under the state's gaming laws.
