Relates to providing pension benefits to the widow of deceased firefighter Derek Floyd
This bill grants pension benefits to Christine Floyd, the widow of firefighter Derek Floyd, who died on April 15, 2024. It retroactively deems Derek Floyd "vested" in the New York City Fire Pension Fund, making his widow eligible for benefits she would have received had he been a member at the time of his death. The New York City Fire Department will cover all implementation costs, and the law takes effect immediately. The bill specifically applies to Christine Floyd's case, not to other firefighters or general pension rules.
