PUBLIC EMPLOYEE BENEFITS-TECH

SB 217 is a technical amendment to the Illinois Pension Code that corrects a grammatical error in Section 4-101, specifically fixing the redundant phrase "the the" to "the" in the existing provision about firefighters' pension funds. This bill does not change any substantive requirements or benefits for firefighters or their families; it only updates the wording of a long-standing administrative rule. The change directly affects municipal pension administrators who implement the fund creation process under Illinois law. As a procedural correction, it has no impact on current pension benefits or eligibility.
