The bill SB0301 addresses the retirement age for firefighters, allowing those with a rank equal to or higher than shift commander to continue serving beyond the age of 62. The sponsor, Robert Harshbarger, is a pharmacist and the owner of Harshbarger Pharmacy, which operates in the pharmaceuticals and health products industry. There are no direct overlaps between his personal financial interests and the subject matter of the bill, which pertains to labor and employment specifically for firefighters. As such, there is no evident personal financial gain for Harshbarger from the passage of this legislation.
