Bill Summary
Relative to the veteran allowance for public retirees. Public Service.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to increase the veteran allowance for public retirees. Specifically, it allows public retirement systems to adopt a provision that provides an additional yearly allowance of $50 for each year of creditable service, up to a maximum of $1,000, for members of Group 1, Group 2, or Group 4 who are veterans. The bill also increases the existing veteran allowance from $15 to $50 per year of creditable service, up to a maximum of $1,000. The provisions of the bill are prospective, meaning they apply only from the date of acceptance by the retirement system and do not provide any retroactive benefits.
