Expands the definition of veteran for affordable housing preference to include all veterans.
This bill modifies the definition of "veteran" for the purposes of the veterans’ affordable housing preference authorized under the “Fair Housing Act.” It removes the requirement for a veteran to have served in the Armed Forces during a time of war or other emergency, aligning the definition with that used for the purposes of veterans’ property tax benefits. This change ensures that all veterans, regardless of when they served, are eligible for the affordable housing preference.
