A "pension reform" bill affecting active and retired members of the Illinois state-funded pension systems passed the House this afternoon. View the status of Senate Bill 0001 on the General Assembly website.
Nothing in this bill affects past or current IMRF members, however, some provisions would affect future (new) IMRF members ONLY.
The IMRF provisions in this bill would:
- Close participation for new employees of certain IMRF employers
- For new IMRF members, it would no longer allow unused, unpaid sick leave to be used for service credit at retirement
- For new IMRF members, exclude lump sum payments for sick or vacation payouts from reportable earnings for IMRF purposes
