Introduced
by
To require lawmakers who have been granted post-retirement health insurance benefits (which start at age 55) to pay 20 percent of the cost of this, up from the current 10 percent copay. This benefit was recently <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2011-HB-4087">terminated</a> on a prospective basis, but 36 out of 38 Senators (including this bill’s sponsor plus cosponsors Rick Jones and Howard Walker) and a handful of current House members were exempted and will still receive the benefit when they leave office.
Referred to the Committee on Government Operations
