The bill amends Section 44-3-4 of the General Laws in Chapter 44-3, focusing on property tax exemptions for veterans. It establishes a full property tax exemption for real property that is the primary residence of any veteran and the unmarried widow or widower of a deceased veteran. The previous $10,000 exemption is replaced with this full exemption, provided satisfactory evidence of receipt of the assistance is furnished to the assessors.

The bill clarifies that if the property is designed for occupancy by more than one family, only the value of the portion occupied by the veteran as their domicile shall be exempted. The act takes effect upon passage.
