This bill would undo changes made to the Kentucky Teachers' Retirement System in 2021 that created different benefit rules for teachers and university employees who joined the system on or after January 1, 2022. If passed, those newer members would instead receive the same retirement benefits as teachers who joined just before that date. The emergency designation means it would take effect immediately upon becoming law. Who it may affect: teachers and university employees who joined the Kentucky Teachers' Retirement System on or after January 1, 2022.
