Bill overview
This bill aims to provide death benefits to the surviving spouses of call and volunteer firefighters in Massachusetts. Currently, these spouses often do not receive the same benefits as the spouses of full-time firefighters. The legislation seeks to establish a consistent and equitable system for providing financial support to these families following the death of a firefighter.
