More oversight of Washington public pensions

Beginning July 27, 2025, Washington’s Select Committee on Pension Policy must receive audit results on pension valuations and experience studies. Before the Pension Funding Council changes pension funding assumptions or contribution rates, the committee must study and recommend changes. This adds review of funding decisions for public employee pensions. It does not directly change household benefits, contributions, or taxes.
