It eliminates the $10 fee for a permanent sport combination hunting and fishing license for these veterans. Additionally, it exempts disabled veterans from taxes and fees for the registration of one private motor vehicle. The bill also ensures that disabled veterans receive reimbursement for local property taxes paid on their primary residence. The changes take effect on January 1, 2026.
