Bill > H2931

This bill provides a specific earnings exemption for Michael Sacco, the former Chief Executive Officer of the Worcester Regional Retirement Board, for the calendar year 2023. Normally, state law (specifically section 91b of chapter 32 of the General Laws) limits the amount of earnings a retired public employee can receive while collecting a pension. However, this bill creates a targeted exception that allows Sacco to earn up to the total amount paid to him by the Worcester Regional Retirement System in 2023, which is $4,862.84, without penalty or reduction of his retirement benefits. The bill is narrowly tailored, applying only to Michael Sacco and exclusively for earnings and retirement payments during the 2023 calendar year. The legislation would take effect immediately upon passage, providing a temporary and specific adjustment to standard retirement earnings limitations.
