H 3732 Massachusetts House · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act directing the city of Boston police department to waive the maximum age requirement for police officers for Wendy Pierre-Louis

HD 4151 is a local bill authorizing the Boston Police Department to waive its standard maximum age requirement for Wendy Pierre-Louis to become an officer. It directly affects Wendy Pierre-Louis, enabling her to join the department despite typically being over the age limit. The bill requires approval from both the mayor and city council, which has already been received. This is a targeted exception, not a change to the general hiring policy.
