For legislation to protect volunteer law enforcement. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to amend the existing law in Massachusetts to protect volunteer law enforcement personnel, such as auxiliary, intermittent, special, part-time, or reserve police officers, as well as volunteer deputy sheriffs. Specifically, it would expand the coverage of the state's pension and disability benefits to include these volunteer law enforcement officers, ensuring they receive the same protections as regular police officers in the event of work-related injuries or fatalities.
