Thanks to kind and skillful editing by Bill Hanna, we circulated a single-page flyer touching on the basics of Colorado's difficulty to generously administer the Constitution's Article X Section 3.5 for disabled veterans property tax exemption.
Further, we even met with two C-123 Ranch Hand veterans plus a VA lady whose husband is one of our post-Vietnam veterans and his Agent Orange claim has sailed through just fine! That unexpected piece of good news is a blessing for my entire week!
We can only hope enough veterans and our advocates raise the question – why isn't the Colorado Constitution faithfully followed in this important area?
Colorado recognizes sacrifices of our totally disabled veterans, awarding a partial property tax exemption to 100 percent totally and permanently disabled veterans. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs has two types of 100% disabled veterans – (1) vets with a 100% disability (2) vets with a total disability rated “Total Disability for Individual Unemployability” (TDIU.) VA benefits for the two types are identical, but Colorado’s TDIU veterans are unfairly denied the exemption
