AB 929 Wisconsin Assembly · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: correcting terminology for making additional contributions to the Wisconsin Retirement System; eliminating a social security account maintained in the public employee trust fund and removing a provision regarding liability for state employer social security remittances; and clarifying who may participate in an income continuation insurance plan provided by the Group Insurance Board (suggested as remedial legislation by the Department of Employee Trust Funds).

AB 929 corrects outdated terminology in Wisconsin's retirement system by clarifying what counts as "additional contributions" (e.g., voluntary payments beyond required employee/employer shares). It eliminates a redundant social security account within the public employee trust fund and updates rules about state liability for employer social security payments. The bill also clarifies eligibility for income continuation insurance plans, removing an age restriction that previously limited participation for some public employees. These changes directly affect Wisconsin public employees, state employers, and the Group Insurance Board.
