If enacted, this bill would amend current statutes related to the Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS) by adding provisions that allow state elected officials who are subject to term limits to retire without resigning from their positions. Specifically, it would insert a new clause (J) into section 38-764, stating that a member who is a state elected official and attains a normal retirement date through employment outside of their elected position may retire at any time without the need to resign.

The bill also makes a minor adjustment to the existing language by adding a reference to subsection J in the current statute that outlines when retirement is deemed to commence. This change clarifies the conditions under which retirement can occur for those elected officials who meet the specified criteria, while the rest of the current law remains unchanged.
