Bill Summary

For legislation to designate January as Peace Officer History Month. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 6 of the Massachusetts General Laws by adding a new section that requires the governor to annually issue a proclamation designating January as Peace Officer History Month. The proclamation would recommend that the people of Massachusetts observe the month in an appropriate manner, recognizing and commemorating the history and contributions of peace officers to the community. This type of legislative action is a formal way to draw public attention to and honor a specific group of public servants, in this case law enforcement officers, by establishing an official month of recognition.
