CalSTRS has conducted an assessment of AB 340, the California
Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013, and its impact on
CalSTRS members and operations and outlined key changes.
The legislative efforts supported by the Teachers' Retirement Board during each session of the California Legislature are consistent with CalSTRS' goals to:
Expand upon and raise the quality of the benefits, products and services offered by CalSTRS;
Improve the delivery of CalSTRS benefits, services and products;
Preserve the assets and minimize the liabilities of the funds administered by CalSTRS;
Advance policies and practices that ensure a financially sound retirement system, while exploring opportunities for innovation.
Each year the Legislature introduces legislation that affects CalSTRS. Listings of CalSTRS legislation include the bill number, authors, CalSTRS’ bill analyses, bill summary, the board’s official position and the bill’s status in the Legislature. Also included is the text of the current and any prior versions of the bill and analyses of bills by the various legislative committees.
We encourage you to participate in the legislative process by
communicating with your Senator or Assembly Member on
legislative proposals that concern you.
Your retirement benefit is based on a formula (Service Credit x
Age Factor x Final Compensation = Member-Only Benefit). How
confident are you in your understanding of how this formula
determines your Member-Only Benefit amount?
