SB 9 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System; providing for benefits increase.

This bill provides a 5% benefit increase for current Oklahoma law enforcement retirees who are receiving benefits as of June 30, 2025, and continue to receive them after the bill's effective date. The increase applies to those already enrolled in the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System, but it is offset by any other benefit increases they would otherwise receive under existing law (Section 2-305). The offset mechanism ensures retirees do not receive duplicate or cumulative increases beyond what is already provided. The bill focuses solely on adjusting current benefit amounts without creating new eligibility categories or altering retirement contribution rules. It remains pending in committee review as of February 2025.
