§ 571. Declaration of policy
In order to extend to employees of the State and its political subdivisions and to
the dependents and survivors of those employees the basic protection accorded to others
by the Old Age and Survivors Insurance System embodied in the Social Security Act,
the State of Vermont authorizes and empowers the Treasurer of the State as a State
agency to enter into appropriate agreements with the Secretary of Health and Human
Services for the purpose of making available under the provisions of this chapter,
to employees of the State and its political subdivisions, the benefits of the Social
Security Act. It is also the policy of the General Assembly that the federal-State
agreement permitted by this chapter be made applicable to the services of all employees
of the State of Vermont to the extent and in the manner permitted by the federal Social
Security Act. (Amended 2025, No. 18, § 12, eff. May 13, 2025.)
