An Act relative to public employee benefits for military service members on active duty

This bill amends a state law to extend public employee benefits coverage to include military service members who die while on active duty, regardless of whether the death was combat-related or not. It adds a new provision (paragraph k) to the existing law, explicitly stating that the benefits apply to all active-duty deaths. The change directly affects public employees serving in the military who pass away during their service, ensuring their families receive benefits without distinction between combat and non-combat circumstances.
