CURRENT BILL SUMMARY
SB 478 - This act eliminates retirement benefits for members of the General Assembly and statewide elected officials who first take office on or after January 1, 2013. A retired state employee who retired under the year 2000 plan and holds one of these elected offices for the first time on or after January 1, 2013 will also be prohibited from receiving retirement benefits from the Missouri State Employees' Retirement System or the Missouri Department of Transportation and Highway Patrol Employees' Retirement System during his or her term of office.
This act also eliminates life insurance and disability insurance coverage for these elected officials and makes them ineligible to have health insurance through the Missouri Consolidated Health Care Plan. These elected officials will also no longer be able to purchase medical insurance coverage from the Missouri Consolidated Health Care Plan after they cease to hold elective office.
