Provides pensions for children of public safety officers killed in the line of duty.
The bill amends Chapter 32 to establish pensions for children of public safety officers, including firefighters, police officers, and corrections officers, who are killed in the line of duty. If the officer has a surviving spouse, the spouse will receive an annual pension. If there is no surviving spouse, the pension will be divided among the children until they reach age 18 or 22 if they are full-time students. The pension amount is equal to the salary the officer would have earned if they had continued in service.
