AN ACT CONCERNING PENSION CALCULATIONS FOR LEGISLATORS AND THE TRANSPORTATION ALLOWANCE.
HB 5006 (2025) changes how Connecticut legislators' retirement benefits are calculated. It excludes mileage reimbursements (payments for travel expenses) from the base salary used to determine pension amounts. This directly affects current and future state legislators who receive transportation allowances. The bill amends Chapter 66 of the general statutes to remove these reimbursements from pension calculations, ensuring retirement income is based solely on salary.
