AI Summary

This bill seeks to define the term "person" for retirement purposes in the Massachusetts General Laws. It amends the state's retirement system law to specify that "person" includes any individual, corporation, retirement board, or organization of retirement board members that has an interest in or fiduciary responsibility for the assets of any retirement system.
