Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Chicago Teacher Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Adds to the definition of "teacher", educational staff employed by a Chicago contract school in a position requiring certification or licensure, except for managerial, supervisory, or confidential employees, who are required to or elect to participate in the Fund. Requires such educational staff to participate, unless they began employment with the contract school before the effective date of the amendatory Act. Provides that educational staff that began employment with the contract school before the effective date of the amendatory Act may elect to participate as a member for service accrued after the effective date of the election. Makes conforming and other changes. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement by the State. Effective July 1, 2021.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
In provisions concerning the submission of payroll records and pension contributions, provides that the Fund shall provide a conditional grace period for contract schools that show evidence of timely and good faith efforts to submit payroll records and make pension contributions due between July 1, 2021 and October 1, 2021. Provides that if payroll records and pension contributions due during that time period are not submitted by October 1, 2021, the statutory penalties, liquidated damages, and interest shall be calculated from the original due date to the submission date of the pension contributions or payroll records, as applicable. Provides that evidence of timely and good faith efforts shall include specified evidence.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill with the following changes: Changes the dates of the conditional grace period for contract schools to show evidence of timely and good faith efforts to submit payroll records and make pension contributions due to between January 1, 2022 and April 1, 2022 (rather than between July 1, 2021 and October 1, 2021). Provides that participation in the Fund shall begin on January 1, 2022 for educational staff of a contract school beginning employment on and after the effective date of the amendatory Act. Allows educational staff employed in a contract school before the effective date of the amendatory Act that elect to participate in the Fund to participate as a member for service accrued after January 1, 2022 (rather than after the effective date of the election) with the contract school, another contract school, a charter school, or the Board of Education. Prohibits a person from accruing service for employment with a contract school that occurred before January 1, 2022 (rather than before the effective date of the election to participate as a member).
