EXPLANATION
23
The
inclusion
of
this
explanation
does
not
constitute
agreement
with
24
the
explanation’s
substance
by
the
members
of
the
general
assembly.
25
This
bill
concerns
the
property
tax
exemption
for
certain
26
property
of
an
organization
composed
of
veterans.
The
bill
27
strikes
the
requirement
that
the
exemption
is
limited
only
to
28
those
organizations
wholly
composed
of
veterans
of
any
war
and
29
instead
allows
the
exemption
for
organizations
composed
of
30
veterans.
