Why this petition matters

Started by Emi Demario

-Veterans with a 90% service related disability rating have zero tax breaks or benefits in Michigan.

-Michigan currently ranks in the bottom five when it comes to states that give back to their veterans.

-We are petitioning for the benefits below to apply to veterans with a 90% service related disability rating and above. 

Current Veterans Benefits in Michigan as of 2022:

Property Tax Waiver:

-100% disabled veterans (and those rated 100% due to individual unemployability) may be exempt from paying taxes on their home. The veteran must have an other-than-dishonorable discharge and be a Michigan resident.

-Surviving spouses who have not remarried are also eligible. 

Vehicle Registration:

-100% permanently and totally disabled veterans may be eligible to register one vehicle with a disabled veteran plate for free, there is a $5 administrative fee when the plate is first issued.

Disabled Veteran Hunting & Fishing Licenses:

-Permanently & totally disabled veterans can get any resident hunting or fishing license for which a lottery is not required, free of charge.
