Bill Summary

This bill permits members of the Public Employees' Retirement System who are serving as an elected official on the bill's effective date to be eligible to retire and receive pension benefits while continuing to hold elected office and receive the full salary for that office if their retirement allowance is not based solely on service in the public office to which they were elected. No contributions will be required of the member covering that service. A provision of law identical to the one in this bill was repealed in 2011, but this bill will be limited to current elected office holders.
