Public employee retirement plan-contributions.

This bill increases both employee and employer contributions to Wyoming's public employee retirement plan. Employees will pay 8.5% to 9.75% of their salary (rising gradually), while employers will pay 8.62% to 9.87% of employee salaries, with firefighters paying lower rates. The bill appropriates $3.483 million from the general fund and $6.825 million from public school funds to cover the increased employer costs for state agencies, universities, and school districts. These changes take effect July 1, 2021, and apply through the 2025-2026 fiscal biennium.
