The House Resolution congratulates Frank J. Karpinski on his retirement after thirty-one years of dedicated service to the State of Rhode Island, particularly in the Office of the General Treasurer and the Employees Retirement System of Rhode Island (ERSRI). Frank began his career in 1994 and has served under six different Rhode Island General Treasurers, playing a crucial role in modernizing the state's retirement system and navigating it through periods of financial instability and reform. His leadership has resulted in a more responsibly funded and managed ERSRI, which is now recognized for its transparency and member focus.

The resolution highlights Frank's expertise in public pension administration, noting his leadership roles within the National Association of State Retirement Administrators. It acknowledges his contributions to the retirement security of Rhode Island's public servants and expresses appreciation for his knowledge, care, and personable nature, which have made him a respected figure in public service. The House of Representatives officially honors Frank Karpinski and directs the Secretary of State to transmit a certified copy of the resolution to him.
