HD 5716 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act granting creditable service for Jason Patrissi

This bill (HD 5716) grants Jason Patrissi, a state probation employee and retirement system member, up to 6 years of creditable service for his prior Vermont Department of Corrections work (Dec 1998-Mar 2006) toward his retirement benefits. It requires the State Board of Retirement to verify that his Vermont service was equivalent to his Massachusetts probation service and mandates Patrissi pay back contributions (plus interest) he would have paid during that period. The bill is procedural and affects only this individual, not broader policy.
