Provides WTC-related benefits to certain employees who worked at the Verrazano Bridge Toll Facility
This bill expands eligibility for World Trade Center-related benefits to include employees who worked at the Verrazano Bridge Toll Facility. By amending the state's retirement and social security law, it adds this specific worksite to the list of locations that qualify for these benefits, alongside other sites like the Fresh Kills Landfill and various New York City emergency response centers. The law applies to public employees who worked at the toll facility during the qualifying period and have since purchased service credit for that time. The change is effective immediately and is treated as if it had been in force since September 11, 2001.
