AI Summary
This bill amends Section 33 of Chapter 268 of the Massachusetts General Laws to prohibit the falsification or impersonation of an emergency medical technician (EMT) or paramedic. The existing law already prohibited the falsification or impersonation of certain government officials, and this bill expands that prohibition to include EMTs and paramedics. The purpose of this bill is to protect the public from individuals who may falsely claim to be EMTs or paramedics, which could potentially lead to harm or confusion during emergency situations.
