In December 2024, Assemblyman Corey Jackson introduced legislation (ACA 2 of 2024), the “Legislative Diversification Act”, which would create a retirement system for state lawmakers who served at least a decade. Of particular note is that the legislation is retroactive, requiring that the retirement system include “Members elected to or serving in the Legislature on or after November 1, 2010”.
