Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend chapter 668 of the laws of 1977, amending the volunteer firefighters' benefit law relating to disability due to disease or malfunction of the heart or coronary arteries, in relation to the effectiveness thereof
AI Summary
This bill extends the effectiveness of provisions in the Volunteer Firefighters' Benefit Law related to disability benefits for heart-related diseases or conditions. Specifically, the bill amends a previous law to extend the current provisions from June 30, 2025, to June 30, 2030. The provisions in question appear to provide disability benefits to volunteer firefighters who experience heart-related medical conditions, potentially recognizing the increased health risks associated with firefighting. By extending the law's effectiveness for an additional five years, the bill ensures that volunteer firefighters will continue to have access to these important disability benefits during that time period. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, meaning the extension to 2030 will be implemented right away.
