STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30817 / H0431
PERSI Choice plan members do not have access to a Roth option under current Idaho Code. To comply
with Secure 2.0 catch-up contribution regulations, a qualified after-tax contribution investment option must
be available to participate in catch-up contributions. 59-1308(9) needs to be updated to allow for this type of
investment option to be in compliance with federal law.
FISCAL NOTE
This legislation will have no impact on the state’s General fund or any dedicated fund or federal fund because
it is a technical correction which codifies access to the same benefit the class of employees has historically had.
