What changed in the latest version
4 added · 29 removedPlain-language change summary
The proposed amendments to HB 895 clarify the details surrounding pension increases for specific law enforcement officers. It now specifies that eligible officers, hired before January 1, 1979, who have at least 14 years of service, will receive a pension increase of 3% once they turn 50, starting the January after they hit that age. This change matters because it provides clearer eligibility and timelines for officers seeking benefits, ensuring they understand when and how much their pension will grow. However, the state will not reimburse local governments for the costs associated with these changes, which could affect municipal budgets.
