PUBLIC EMPLOYEE BENEFITS-TECH

SB 154 is a technical amendment to Illinois' pension law that updates the wording in Section 4-101 of the Illinois Pension Code regarding how municipalities must establish firefighters' pension funds. It does not change the requirements for creating or operating these funds, nor does it affect benefits or eligibility for firefighters. The bill directly affects Illinois municipalities that administer firefighter pension funds, ensuring the legal description of their creation aligns with current code structure. This is a procedural correction with no substantive policy impact on pension benefits or administration.
