AI Summary

This bill establishes a homestead exemption for disabled veterans in Massachusetts. It amends the state's tax law to provide an exemption from property taxes for real estate owned and used as the residence or domicile of a veteran who has a permanent and total disability resulting from their military service, as long as the veteran is a permanent resident of the state. The exemption can also be transferred to the surviving spouse of the disabled veteran under certain conditions. The bill also expands the existing homestead exemption for disabled veterans to include those who are hemiplegic or require a wheelchair for mobility.
