Today, the Senate Retirement Committee favorably reported Senate Bill 1 (Sen. Price).

SB 1 now heads to the full Senate for consideration.Although it was originally scheduled to be considered today, Senate Bill 5 (Sen. Miguez), which proposed broad new requirements related to investments and voting of shares for all fiduciaries of Louisiana’s public retirement systems, will be heard at a future Senate Retirement Committee meeting as yet to be determined.
