If you are referring the MD Hometown Heroes Act, the age requirement is still 55 or older for the up to $15,000 deduction from taxable income for retirement benefits received by "retired correctional officer, law enforcement officer, or fire, rescue, or emergency services personnel of the United States, Maryland, or a political subdivision of Maryland."
See page 9 of the MD Resident Tax Forms Booklet.
