What’s in it

Under current law, the judicial retirement system cannot pay an annuity to a person while the person is serving as a state officer or employee. This bill provides that a retired judge serving in the general assembly may receive an annuity from the judicial retirement system. Pursuant to the Constitution of the State of Iowa, the bill takes effect upon the convening of the 92nd General Assembly in January 2027.
