S 1929 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to veteran tax abatements

This bill proposes to automatically increase veteran property tax abatements in Massachusetts each year to match the annual rise in the Consumer Price Index. The change directly affects veterans who currently receive tax breaks on their property under various existing programs, ensuring their financial relief keeps pace with inflation. By linking the abatement value to the cost of living, the legislation aims to prevent the real value of these tax benefits from eroding over time.
