Provides that a surviving spouse of a member or annuitant under the Chicago Teacher Article who is also a dependent beneficiary under the provisions of the Downstate Teacher Article is eligible for a reciprocal survivor's pension, provided that any refund of survivor's pension contributions is repaid to the Fund and application is made within 30 days. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement. Effective immediately.
