HF 267: Concerning benefits associated with cancer diagnoses of members of certain public retirement systems
Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on October 2, 2026. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.
What it does
This bill concerns benefits relating to members of the public safety peace officers’ retirement, accident, and disability system (PORS), and the municipal fire and police retirement system (411 system). The bill expands the definition of “cancer” by striking references to specific cancers and inserting a more generalized description. By expanding the definition of “cancer” to include more cancer diagnoses, the bill likewise expands the availability of accidental disability and death benefits to members of PORS or the 411 system who have a cancer diagnosis.
