The Second General Session of the 74th Colorado General Assembly began on Jan. 10, 2024, at the State Capitol in Denver. As of mid-February, six bills that affect Colorado PERA have been introduced. PERA On The Issues tracks bills and provides updates throughout the session, which is scheduled to end on May 8. View those 2024 proposed legislation updates and subscribe to the PERA On The Issues newsletter to stay informed.

While the PERA Board of Trustees is responsible for administering benefits and overseeing PERA’s investments, the Colorado General Assembly is responsible for many other aspects of PERA, such as contribution rates, benefit levels, and the amount of the annual benefit increases that retirees receive.
