An Act relative to certain employees of the MBTA advisory board
This bill amends state laws to formally recognize employees of the MBTA advisory board as eligible for retirement benefits under the Massachusetts retirement system. By updating legal definitions in Chapter 32 and related statutes, the legislation ensures that individuals whose time is devoted to the advisory board's duties are included alongside regular MBTA employees for pension purposes. The measure is designated as an emergency law to immediately establish these benefits for current and future advisory board staff.
