AI Summary

This bill removes the phrase "subject to appropriation" from Chapter 115, Section 5 of the Massachusetts General Laws, which relates to shelter benefits for veterans. This change means that the provision for shelter benefits for veterans is no longer subject to the availability of appropriated funds, potentially making these benefits more accessible and reliable for veterans in need of shelter.
