FISCAL NOTE, 89TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
March 18, 2025

TO:
Honorable Joan Huffman, Chair, Senate Committee on Finance
 
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SJR57 by Huffman (Proposing a constitutional amendment prohibiting the use of state funds to pay for the obligations of a local public retirement system.), As Introduced

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated, other than the cost of publication.

The cost to the state for publication of the resolution is $191,689.

The resolution would propose a constitutional amendment prohibiting the use of state funds to pay for the obligations of a local public retirement system.  According to the Comptroller of Public Accounts, there are no current or future state obligations to fund a local retirement system, and therefore the resolution would have no fiscal implications to the state.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
