 Legislation
Impacting NYSTRS Benefits
NYSTRS
administers a defined benefit plan established by the New York State
Legislature. The Legislature must initiate and enact any benefit
improvements (e.g., early retirement incentives). NYSTRS simply
administers the plan provided by law.
To
become law, a bill must be approved by both the State Assembly and the
State Senate, and then be signed by the Governor. The following links
provide summaries of recent State laws that impacted NYSTRS benefits, as
well as information about pending legislation of interest to members. Below
that, you can link to the
Assembly and Senate Web pages, where you can search for a bill and
monitor its progress.
