H 2773 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act defining person for retirement purposes

This bill (HD 566) amends Massachusetts law by adding a definition of "Person" to include individuals, corporations, retirement boards, and organizations with fiduciary responsibility for retirement system assets. It directly affects retirement board members, fiduciaries, and organizations managing retirement funds by clarifying who is legally recognized under retirement laws. The key mechanism is a simple definitional change within the law, not a new policy or benefit. This procedural update ensures consistent application of retirement regulations to all entities handling retirement funds.
