House Sponsors: HOFFMAN-SCOTT. Short description: PENCD-ART 18-CONTRIBUTIONS Synopsis of Bill as introduced: Amends the Judges Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Removes the requirement that a judge must attain age 60 before he or she may elect to have his or her contributions to the System based only on the increases in salary received by the judge on or after the date of the election rather than on the total salary received. Extends the deadline for a judge to revoke the election to stop contributing to the System from January 1, 2000 to January 1, 2003. Effective immediately. PENSION NOTE (Pension Laws Commission) The fiscal impact of HB 1964 has not been calculated, but is estimated to be minor, as the number of judges who attain the maximum annuity rate prior to age 60 is expected to be small.
