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

This bill amends Section 100A of Chapter 32 of the General Laws to clarify that public employee benefits for military service members on active duty apply to all deaths occurring while on active duty, regardless of whether the death was combat-related or not. It directly affects public employees who die during military service, ensuring their benefits coverage is not restricted to combat-related deaths. The key provision is a simple textual amendment to expand the scope of existing benefit eligibility under the law. This is a procedural clarification, not a new policy change.
