Legislation

Every jurisdiction in this catalog has entries whose figures move when a bill passes, whose act takes effect on a later date, or whose program is repealed while its agency keeps advertising it. This page watches each jurisdiction's law, follows a bill through its own jurisdiction's process where its stages are recorded, and names the catalog entries each instrument touches.

Choosing a jurisdiction overrides the level. Stage is where the bill stands in its own jurisdiction's process. Direction is whether it expands or restricts benefits, recorded only where the reason can be read from the bill. Outcome is whether the instrument became law; catalog status is whether this catalog has been reconciled against it. None of this is legal advice, and a tracked item is a pointer to the official record rather than a substitute for reading it.

2 instruments in Arizona. Tracked across 51 jurisdictions. Every other jurisdiction on the board is still watched by hand.

A bill that died is listed only where a guide, an agency, or a news story has described it as current law. That is the failure that puts a number in front of a veteran which no assessor, registrar, or school will honor.

Expands and restricts Counts a home owned with a spouse as the veteran's, but limits the full exemption to the primary residence.

An emergency act signed February 12, 2026, applying to tax years after December 31, 2025. It replaced "the property" with the veteran’s primary residence, treated a home owned with a spouse as owned solely by the veteran, tied the surviving spouse’s continuation to the spouse’s primary residence, and made the income limit apply "to qualify for an exemption under this section" rather than "this exemption". Chapter 82 (House Bill 2120, June 4, 2026) reprinted the same text and added Social Security letters as proof of total and permanent disability.
