House: Accompanied a study order, see H5466 (under House Rule 27)
Summary
The bill rewrites parts of Massachusetts’ veterans’ bonus law to define the Korean Emergency, Persian Gulf War, Vietnam Conflict, and World War II periods. It expands eligibility so any veteran who served in those wars and lives in the Commonwealth can receive a bonus, even if they were discharged under non‑honorable conditions because of sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or HIV status. Additional language updates how medals and residency are treated.
