Bill Summary

Relative to law enforcement officer benefit equity. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill aims to provide law enforcement officer benefit equity by expanding the definition of "police officer" to include officers appointed by the University of Massachusetts, Executive Office of Environmental Affairs, Massachusetts Port Authority, and state universities and community colleges. It also extends retirement and pension benefits to these officers, as well as to University of Massachusetts police cadets who successfully complete the cadet program and are appointed to a law enforcement position. The bill ensures these officers have the same authority, immunities, and privileges as other police officers in the Commonwealth.
