                                 A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
    1-1                                AN ACT
    1-2  relating to credit in and benefits payable by the Texas Municipal

    1-4        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
    1-5        SECTION 1.  Section 853.401, Government Code, is amended by
    1-6  adding Subsection (f) to read as follows:
    1-7        (f)  A governing body may not authorize and provide for
    1-8  updated service credits under this section unless it simultaneously
    1-9  provides for annuity increases under Section 854.203.
   1-10        SECTION 2.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-11  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-12  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-13  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-14  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
   1-15  and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
   1-16  passage, and it is so enacted.
