Subject: CRTA Legislative Information Line

The Assembly Public Employees, Retirement and Social Security Committee
considered and acted upon the CRTA-opposed ACA 23 (Richman). This bill
would create a two-tiered retirement system for members of STRS and other
public employees.  This proposal has been considered many times.  The
Assembly action was to hold the bill in Committee because there was not a
second on the motion to vote on the bill.  The effect of being held in
Committee without a second vote is the same as stopping the bill.
  Congratulations to CRTA members for stopping this two-tiered proposal.
