Correctional Employees Retirement Plan Update

On Tuesday night, despite an amendment offered by Rep. Paul Kohls, Rep. Paymar and the House's Public Safety Finance Division passed its omnibus bill out of committee without the governor's proposal in the bill.  The governor's proposal would have removed all MAPE job classes from the Correctional Employees Retirement Plan. 

Earlier in the session, the Pension Commission voted down the adoption of the governor's proposal into the Pension Omnibus Bill.  We will be working hard to keep the provision out of the Senate's Public Safety Finance Omnibus bill and preventing the provision from being amended back onto the bills.
