H 2934 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

Resolve authorizing the study of cost of living increases for state police retirees

This bill creates a special commission to study whether cost-of-living increases should be added for Massachusetts State Police retirees. The commission, composed of state officials and a retiree representative, will examine financial feasibility and report findings to lawmakers by January 2027. If the commission recommends changes, it would draft legislation for potential implementation. The bill itself does not change current benefits but establishes a process to evaluate them.
