 Pension Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
 HB 2746 is substantively similar to the original Biss-Nekritz proposal of the 97th GA. The fiscal impact of that bill is as follows: A recent cost study by SERS’ actuary projects the State to save $326 million in contributions in FY 2014 and over $27 billion in contributions through FY 2045 by adopting the benefit changes in HB 2746. SURS’ actuary projects the State will save $333 million in contributions for FY 2014 and approximately $18.9 billion in contributions through FY 2045 by adopting the benefit changes in this bill. TRS’ actuary projects that the State will be able to reduce contributions in FY 2014 by $1.22 billion by adopting this bill. Additionally, the State is projected to save $114.17 billion in contributions to TRS through FY 2043. TRS’s actuary did not provide data for FY 2044 and 2045.
