Established in 1947, the Legislators' Retirement System provides retirement and death benefits for Legislators, Constitutional Officers, and Legislative Statutory Officers.
The Legislators' Retirement System is funded through contributions from the state and members of the system and from investment earnings. The members' contributions are dependent upon when the member first enrolled in the Legislators' Retirement System. Members enrolled prior to March 4, 1972, contribute 4 percent of their salaries while members enrolled after that date contribute 8 percent of their salaries.
