PERS bill dies
SUMMARY: City and county governments in Mississippi may have to raise taxes or cut employees after a state Senate committee killed House legislation that would have reduced the employer contribution to the state public retirement system for government workers. The Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) pays out monthly benefits to 300,000 retired state workers, with a $25 billion unfunded liability. The plan to phase in a 2 percent annual increase for the next three years would impact local governments. Mayor Toby Barker, of the Mississippi Municipal League, is concerned about the financial burden on cities and towns if they have to pay more to fund PERS.
