HD 3129 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to the indemnity of public employees

HD 3129 increases the maximum indemnity cap for public employees from $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 under Section 9 of Chapter 258 of the General Laws. This change directly affects public employees who may seek compensation for certain claims against their employers (typically state or municipal agencies). The key provision raises the legal limit on the amount the government can pay in indemnity for covered claims. The bill does not create new programs or alter eligibility but adjusts the financial ceiling for existing indemnity processes. This is a procedural adjustment to the current law, not a substantive policy shift.
