H 2637 Massachusetts House · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

Resolve authorizing the study of cost of living increases for state police retirees

This bill establishes a special commission to investigate whether cost-of-living adjustments should be increased for Massachusetts State Police retirees. The commission will include representatives from the public service committee, the state retirement board, the public employee retirement administration, and the group representing retirees. By January 1, 2024, the group must submit its findings and any proposed legislation to the relevant legislative committees. The measure does not change retirement benefits immediately but creates a formal process to study the issue and recommend potential policy changes.
