Issue Position: Pension Reform

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016
Issues: Government Budget and Spending

The General Assembly voted in December of 2013 to make significant changes to the state retiree pension plans, including years of service and calculation of Cost of Living Adjustments. The pension program has been paid in full the last four years, ending the dangerous practice of under funding. I supported these difficult changes and also the budgets that reaffirmed the state's need to meet its obligation to the retirement security of its own employees.
