Bill Summary

For legislation to protect volunteer law enforcement. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill aims to protect volunteer law enforcement personnel by amending the state's retirement system laws. Specifically, it adds "auxiliary, intermittent, special, part-time or reserve police officers" and "volunteer deputy sheriffs" to the definition of "public safety personnel" who are eligible for certain retirement benefits and protections under the law. This change would extend key provisions, originally intended for full-time law enforcement officers, to volunteer and part-time law enforcement personnel as well.
