FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB 302
2024 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
This bill seeks to add Teacher Retirement System (TRS) members to the Supplemental Annuity Plan - Supplemental
Benefits System (SAP-SBS) by adding subsection (e) to 39.30.170.
Per new section (e): An active employee member of the teachers' retirement system (as 14.25) or a person employed as a
peace officer or firefighter by a political subdivision of the state may elect to become a participating employee if employed
by an employer who is not (1) a participating employer; (2) a member of the federal social security system.
As currently written, this bill would not require additional personnel though it will increase workload on enrollment of new
employers to the SBS, if passed. The majority of workload will be on employers for setup and payment of SBS and
remitting payroll files and funds to the Division of Retirement and Benefits.
Section 7 of this bill amends section (a) by depositing an employer match that is 9.74% of a peace officer or firefighter's
compensation rather than 5%.
Implementing this bill's provision will require an actuarial analysis due to the impact on the additional state contribution
and DRB submits an indeterminate fiscal note until such time as an actuarial analysis can be completed.
