House Bill 3247 amends the Government Code to revise provisions regarding the administration of the Texas Emergency Services Retirement System (TESRS). Among other provisions, the bill includes as a participating department a not‑for‑profit entity that performs emergency services and includes as an eligible TESRS member any person who performs emergency or support services as a volunteer or paid emergency employee for a participating department. The bill authorizes the TESRS board of trustees to adopt rules regarding the revocation of an election to participate in the system in a manner that maintains an actuarially sound system.
