Bill Summary
A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa relating to legislative changes to public retirement systems.
AI Summary
This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Iowa Constitution that would require a supermajority vote to change laws concerning public retirement systems. Specifically, any bill that enacts, amends, or repeals provisions related to these systems would need the approval of at least two-thirds of the members in both the Iowa House of Representatives and the Iowa Senate to pass. This higher voting threshold is intended to provide greater protection for public retirement systems. The proposed amendment will be referred to the next General Assembly for consideration and, if approved again, will be put to a vote of the people (ratification) to become part of the Constitution.
