Fiscal Detail and Notes
This legislation exempts veterans diagnosed with ALS from vehicle excise tax and would result in a loss of revenue to municipalities. No estimate of the loss to municipalities can be made at this time. To the extent out of state veterans register their vehicles in Maine, General Fund revenues could be reduced by minor amounts not requiring any change to the budget.
