If you elect the DC plan and move your DB member balance, your employer must add 63% of that transferred amount to your new DC account. The payment comes from a sub‑trust. Federal annual limits apply; any excess may be paid in the next limitation year if allowed. - When and how your pension pays: benefit, high. If you first joined after June 30, 2006, you can retire at age 60 with at least 5 years, or with 30 years at any age. Peace officers and firefighters have earlier age‑and‑service options. Your monthly pension equals one‑twelfth of your best five‑year average salary times a tiered rate: 2.0% per yea… - Buy and move service credit: benefit, medium. If you first joined before July 1, 2006, you can buy service for work before June 5, 1988 if you met the old rules and did not already get credit under AS 39.35. You can move eligible service from AS 39.35 into the teachers’ plan. Your employer can pay for service purchases, including through an ir… - How much employers must pay in: benefit, medium. Employers must pay set amounts to fund your retirement. Each pay period they pay the smaller of 12.56% of base salaries or the board’s rate, which must be at least 12% and cover normal and past service costs. For some pre‑2006 groups, employers pay 22% of the larger of two salary measures (current… - Stronger funding for post‑2006 pensions: benefit, medium. The law creates a sub‑trust to hold money for members who first joined after June 30, 2006. Employer deposits must cover the actuarial normal cost and past service cost for that group, with a required top‑up if amounts are under 12% of total base pay. Employers that provide DB for post‑2006 members… - Separate trust for post-2006 pensions: benefit, medium. The board sets up one or more sub-trusts for members who first joined after June 30, 2006. It keeps their employer and employee contributions, assets, and earnings in separate accounts. The plan tracks these amounts separately for those post-2006 defined benefit members. - Mistaken employer payments must be returned: benefit, low. If the administrator finds an employer contribution was made by a mistake of fact, the plan returns that money to the employer. The return must happen within one year after that finding. This corrects deposits sent in error. - Some retirements lose medical benefits: cost, high. If you retire under AS 39.35.381, you do not get disability or death benefits under the listed sections. You are not eligible for the minimum benefit or retiree medical under the named medical sections. Service earned under that section does not count for vesting. - What you pay into your pension: cost, high. The law sets what comes out of your paycheck. If you first joined after June 30, 2006, you pay 8% of your base pay, taken each payroll before federal tax. For many teachers in the DB plan, the rate is 8.65% of the base pay earned July 1–June 30. The board must raise member rates if the post‑2006 pa… - Retiree medical and HRA for post‑2006: mixed, high. The law creates a retiree HRA for teachers and public employees who first joined after June 30, 2006 (and certain DC electors). Employers pay 3% of average annual pay to each HRA (4% for peace officers and firefighters). You can get retiree medical if you retire with at least 25 years of service (2… - One-time DC-to-DB switch for workers: mixed, high. Teachers who joined after June 30, 2006 and before July 1, 2027 can elect the DB plan by January 1, 2028 if employed on July 1, 2027. Certain reemployed public employees have a one-time DB election within 180 days of rehire. The administrator moves your full DC balance (with earnings) to the DB fun… - Switching from pension to savings plan: mixed, high. Active, non‑vested DB members can switch to the DC plan; some post‑2006 hires can switch if their employer does not offer DB to that cohort. When you transfer your DB member balance into your new DC account, your employer must add 88% of that balance, subject to federal limits. Your election must b… - Who is in DB or DC plan: mixed, high. If you first joined between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2027 and do not choose DB, you are in the DC plan. Teachers who are eligible for DB and not in DC follow DB rules. You are excluded from the teachers’ DB plan if you are in the university plan or you chose DC and did not switch to DB. DC plan ru… - Pension COLA increases and new limits: mixed, medium. Annual pension increases follow set formulas: age 65+ or disabled get the lesser of 75% of last year’s COL increase or 9%; age 60–64, or under 60 with five years on benefit, get the lesser of 50% of last year’s COL increase or 6%. Pre‑2006 members age 65+ or disabled who live in Alaska also get a m… - Hire‑date rules for retiree medical premiums: mixed, medium. Who gets retiree medical depends on when you first joined and whether you elected coverage. The law lists which teachers and public employees, their spouses, and dependents can be covered by hire date. If you first became a member before July 1, 2006, you usually must pay the full premium if you ar… - Choose teachers' plan only, service limits: mixed, medium. If you are in the teachers’ DB plan and also work in a PERS‑covered job, you can elect to be covered only by the teachers’ plan. You must direct the PERS employer to send employer and employee amounts to the teachers’ plan and pay the required difference. While you stay only in the teachers’ plan,… - Employer DB participation and 2027 opt‑out: mixed, medium. If an employer offers the DC plan, it must also participate in the DB plan. From January 1 to June 30, 2027, political subdivisions and public organizations may elect not to provide DB benefits to employees who first became members after June 30, 2006. The law defines who counts as an employer and… - Rehired staff: one-time move to DB: mixed, medium. If you joined the DC plan after June 30, 2006 and before July 1, 2027, were not working on July 1, 2027, and are reemployed after that date, you can elect the DB plan once within 180 days. Your DC balance, including rollovers, is used to buy DB service. If you took a full cash‑out before rehire, or… - Yearly benefit increases: new rules: mixed, medium. You now qualify for the yearly increase after five years of receiving benefits, down from eight. If you first joined after June 30, 2006 and do not meet Permanent Fund Dividend rules as of July 1, 2026, your increase is cut to half the normal percent. If funding for the post‑2006 portion drops belo… - Rules for service credit and averages: mixed, low. Your benefit average uses three consecutive payroll years if you were hired before July 1, 1996 (or are a peace officer/firefighter hired before July 1, 2006), otherwise it uses five consecutive years. You cannot receive two pensions at the same time under different sections, get duplicate service… - Protects earned benefits and plan wind-down: mixed, low. The plan cannot retroactively cut benefits you already earned, except as allowed by the Alaska Constitution and federal tax law. The state can end a plan, but only after meeting legal rules and paying all liabilities. After all obligations are paid, any extra assets go back to the employer. - Plan change authority and repeals: mixed, low. The state may amend the retirement plan at any time, consistent with the Alaska Constitution and federal tax rules. The law also repeals several listed statute subsections. Future impacts depend on how this authority is used and what the repealed sections contained. - Faster plan rules with limited review: mixed, low. The retirement board and the administration commissioner can issue rules to carry out this law without the full state rulemaking process. These internal rules cannot take effect before the law’s effective date. This speeds up implementation but uses less outside review. - On-time payments and employer offsets: mixed, low. Employers must send required retirement and retiree health payments each pay period. If payments are late, interest is charged from the due date at the plan’s actuarial earnings rate. The legislature can lower an employer’s required payment by giving money for that purpose. If an employer overpays… ## Sponsors and cosponsors - Sponsor: HOUSE FINANCE ## Roll call votes | Date | Chamber | Motion | Result | Yes | No | Other | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2026-05-19 | House | GOVERNOR VETO SUSTAINED Y33 N27 | pass | 33 | 27 | | | 2026-04-29 | House | EFFECTIVE DATE(S) FAILED Y21 N19 | fail | 21 | 19 | | | 2026-04-29 | House | SUSTAINED RULING OF CHAIR Y19 N19 A2 | fail | 19 | 19 | | | 2026-04-29 | House | CONCUR AM OF (S) Y21 N19 | pass | 21 | 19 | | | 2026-04-28 | Senate | PASSED Y12 N8 | pass | 12 | 8 | | | 2026-04-28 | Senate | RECON SAME DAY VOTE Y15 N5 -
