Introduced

To replace the lifetime health insurance benefit granted to legislators who have spent six years in office and have reached age 55, with a graduated system that would pay 30 percent of the premium after 10 years in office and another three percent for each additional year until 90 percent of the health insurance premium cost would be paid by the state after 30 years. Note: Under the (current) term limits law, the maximum length of time a legislator can be in office is 14 years. The bill would also apply to lieutenant governors (who might add another eight years in office to this.) This would only apply to lawmakers elected beginning in November, 2010.
