Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to certain disabilities of university police officers appointed by the state university of New York
AI Summary
This bill amends the Retirement and Social Security Law to include State University of New York (SUNY) police officers under the "heart bill" provision. This provision establishes a presumption that certain heart diseases or impairments suffered by police officers and firefighters are caused by their job duties, making them eligible for performance of duty disability benefits. The bill ensures that SUNY police officers, who are members of the New York State and Local Police and Fire Retirement System, can also benefit from this presumption. The bill is a technical correction to a previous law, and its fiscal impact is expected to be negligible, with only a small number of additional performance of duty disability retirements anticipated.
