AI Summary

This bill makes several changes to Nebraska's retirement laws, including defining "approved identification document" for verifying lawful presence in the United States for participation in retirement systems and for deferred compensation plans. It also renames certain state transfers as "state contributions," changes the title of the executive director of the Nebraska Public Employees Retirement Systems (NPERS), and adjusts provisions related to ex officio members of the Nebraska Investment Council, school district contributions, and how tax withholdings are calculated for deferred compensation. Additionally, the bill removes outdated provisions from the Class V School Employees Retirement Act and related fund, harmonizes various statutes, and repeals the original sections of law that are being amended.
