Short description: 
PENCD-DNST POL-MARRY IN RETMT                                              

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Downstate Police Article of the Illinois Pension Code.      
   With respect to eligibility for a survivor's pension upon the death of      
   a pensioner, requires that the surviving  spouse  be  married  to  the      
   pensioner  for  at  least  one  year  before death, rather than before      
   retirement.  Amends the State Mandates Act to  require  implementation      
   without reimbursement.  Effective immediately.                              
          PENSION NOTE (Pension Laws Commission)                               
          The fiscal impact of SB 1696 cannot be determined, but is            
          estimated to be minor. The number of widows who would become         
          eligible for a widow's annuity, per SB 1696, is expected to be       
          relatively small.
