Past event
Mar 26, 2021, 4 to 6 PM

LEGISLATIVE PUBLIC HEARING ON PUBLIC EMPLOYEE PENSION SYSTEM
Friday, March 26, 4-6 pm on Zoom; pre-registration required

The Legislature is focused this session on putting the State of Vermont's public pension system on a path towards long-term sustainability, so that teachers, troopers and all state employees can rely on a well-funded, solvent system when they retire. We are acting now to save the defined benefit model for public pensions because, when properly designed and managed, this is the most affordable way to provide secure income in retirement.

The House Committee on Government Operations will hold a hearing via Zoom on Friday, March 26, 2021, 4-6 pm.

Members of the public who would like to testify regarding the Legislature's work to stabilize the public employee pension system may sign up here:

The hearing will adjourn at 6:00 p.m. unless there are no persons remaining who have requested to testify, in which case the meeting may adjourn at 5:30 p.m.
