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catalog has entries whose figures move when a bill passes, whose act takes effect on a later date, or whose program is repealed while its agency keeps advertising it.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.
1 instrument in Tennessee. 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 benefitsWould have raised the disabled veteran property tax relief from the first $175,000 of market value to the first $200,000.
Filed January 20, 2026 to raise the property value on which disabled veteran relief is paid from $175,000 to $200,000. It was recommended for passage by the Senate State and Local Government Committee nine votes to nothing on March 10, 2026 and referred to Senate Finance, Ways and Means, where it was placed on the calendar three times in April 2026. The bill record shows no floor vote in either chamber and no public chapter. It is not law and the cap is still $175,000, which is what the statute says and what the Comptroller’s 2026 brochure prints. Tracked under the exception for bills that died, because it is being reported as current law: multiple guides state that the cap rises to $200,000 effective July 1, 2026 and advise veterans filing for the 2026 tax year to use the higher figure. A veteran who claims on $200,000 is claiming on a bill.
