Can the legislature do it again? Can't the legislature define an active duty servicemember who dies in the line of duty as a disabled veteran? That might work to pack into Article X Section 3.5 our few Gold Star Wives. The new text is in red
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
