HJR 2010 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa relating to legislative changes to public retirement systems.

HJR 2010 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring a two-thirds vote in both Iowa legislative chambers to pass any bill changing public retirement systems (including laws governing benefits, funding, or administration). This would apply to all legislation enacting, amending, or repealing retirement system provisions, making it harder to alter these systems without broad bipartisan support. The amendment does not change retirement benefits or funding levels itself, only the legislative process needed to make such changes. If approved by the legislature and voters, it would become part of Iowa's Constitution.
