Legislators' Retirement System.

The Legislators' Retirement Law creates the Legislators' Retirement System, which provides pension and other benefits to those members of the Legislature and specified state and statutory officers who have elected to become members. Existing California constitutional provisions prohibit the provision of retirement benefits to members of the Legislature and, on and after January 1, 2013, the Legislators' Retirement System was closed generally to new members. The Legislators' Retirement System pays a death benefit to members who, at the time of their deaths, are legislators. This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the above-described death benefit provisions of the Legislators' Retirement System.
