HB 963 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

RETIREMENT/MUNICIPAL POL: Provides relative to reemployment of retirees in the Municipal Police Employees' Retirement System (EN INCREASE APV)

HB 963 is a procedural amendment that modifies the language of a bill concerning the Municipal Police Employees' Retirement System. The change removes a specific exception clause to allow for the reemployment of retired police officers under the system's rules. This adjustment does not create new benefits or alter existing policies but simply clarifies the text to facilitate the reemployment process. The bill passed the House with a unanimous vote and was subsequently sent to the Senate for further consideration.
