Introduced
by
To allow funds in the children's trust fund to be invested in stocks. The bill is part of a package that would allow state restricted funds to invest in the same instruments allowed for state pension funds. This would require a vote of the people to change the Constitution, which currently prohibits this. The bill is tie-barred to Senate Joint Resolution T, which would place the question on the August 2002 statewide primary election ballot.
