REFERRED TO COMMITTEE ON VETERANS AFFAIRS AND EMERGENCY
PREPAREDNESS, FEBRUARY 21, 2017
AN ACT
Amending Title 35 (Health and Safety) of the Pennsylvania
Consolidated Statutes, in volunteer firefighters, further
providing for use of funds of a volunteer firefighters'
relief association.
The General Assembly finds that the safe operation of a fire
or emergency vehicle is of paramount concern, both for a
firefighter riding in the fire or emergency vehicle and for the
public at large. Safe operation of a fire or emergency vehicle
is increased when the operator is the holder of a commercial
driver's license. Therefore, the General Assembly declares that
the provision of aid to defray the cost of obtaining or renewing
a commercial driver's license is in the best interest of this
Commonwealth.
The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
hereby enacts as follows:
Section 1. Section 7416(f) of Title 35 of the Pennsylvania
Consolidated Statutes is amended by adding a paragraph to read:
ยง 7416. Funds.
