Creates Public Employee Pension and Health Care Benefits Reform Task Force.
This bill creates a Public Employee Pension and Health Care Benefits Reform Task Force to implement recommendations from the New Jersey Pension and Health Benefit Study Commission's 2015 and 2016 reports. The task force will develop specific details for pension and health benefit reforms, including terms, transition periods, and implementation methods for local governments and school boards. It must hold three public hearings across New Jersey's regions and submit an interim report within three months and a final report within seven months of its first meeting. The task force expires one year after its final report, and the bill remains inactive until voters approve a constitutional amendment related to pension funding.
