Bill Summary · H 2746

Legislative bill overview

H 2746 is a special legislation bill that addresses retirement benefits specifically for Mary Donna Nodurf. The bill was introduced in the Massachusetts House and has progressed through committee review, with a favorable report from committee. The specific provisions regarding what retirement benefits are being granted or modified are not detailed in the available legislative actions.

Why is this important

Special legislation bills of this type establish individual exceptions to standard retirement systems, which can set precedents for how retirement benefits are calculated or awarded. These bills often address situations where an individual's circumstances—such as career interruptions, service classification disputes, or calculation errors—warrant deviation from standard pension formulas. Such measures can have fiscal implications for municipal or state retirement systems.

Potential points of contention

  • Fiscal impact uncertainty: Without seeing the bill text, the cost to the retirement system and whether it's funded is unclear, which could affect taxpayer liability
  • Precedent concerns: Individual retirement benefit bills may prompt similar requests from others in comparable situations, raising equity questions
  • Lack of transparency: The specific circumstances justifying this exception are not publicly detailed in the legislative record, making public evaluation difficult
