Purpose and Intent: The bill aims to remove certain restrictions on cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) for retired members of the law enforcement bargaining unit who are 65 years of age or older.

Procedural and Timeline Considerations: The bill has been carried over to the next legislative session, which means it will be considered again in the future. If passed, the COLA changes would be implemented retroactively to provide relief for eligible retirees.
