The retirement system stress test bill was skipped over Monday so the author could add amendments. The amendments were added yesterday, which means the bill has to have another actuarial study done before it can be put back on the regular agenda. The retirement bills on the agenda for this coming Monday are not controversial and are not on our radar. The bills that we are tracking are still in the actuarial study for the time being.
We will be in attendance Monday, March 4th at 10:00 a.m. for the Joint Retirement Committee meeting. We encourage our retirees to attend, and we will once again provide a shuttle service. Meet us at our office at 1301 W. 7th Street in downtown Little Rock before the meeting for coffee and pastries.
Have a great weekend.
John Bridges
Executive Director
