Context text
The motion prevailed. Senator Shink’s statement is as follows: I appreciate the important work done by the corrections officers who keep Michigan safe, and a lot has already been said on that topic. I’ve heard from the officers, and what I’ve heard is that this package of bills is what they most want to help make their work and their lives better. I’ve heard too many stories of corrections officers who’ve basically said that their marriages have been ruined, their relationships with their children and friends have been ruined, and that this pension, which they believe will increase their ranks, will also give them hope for a better retirement. That’s worth working for and worth continuing to serve for. This bill amends the State Police Retirement Act to require the plan to grant service, under this act, for service rendered under the State Employees’ Retirement Act if the member pays to the SPRS an amount equal to the actuarial value of the services determined by the SPRS actuary. The bill does not require members to purchase any service credit, nor are they required to purchase service credits for the entirety of their service rendered under the State Employees’ Retirement Act. This means that that act would be voluntary. Again, I urge my colleagues to support Senate Bill No. 167. Senator Singh moved that the Senate proceed to consideration of the following bill: Senate Bill No. 982 The motion prevailed.
