AI Summary

This bill amends existing Massachusetts law to expand the opportunity for veterans who are members of public retirement systems to purchase service credit for their military service. The bill provides that veterans who were previously eligible but did not make the purchase within the required 180-day window will now have a one-year period to do so, and retirement systems must inform eligible members of this opportunity. The bill also requires retirement boards to provide written notice to members upon their entry into service that they may be eligible for this veterans' buyback provision.
