Updated for 2017! "Retirement Income for Illinois Fire and Police," written for the men and women in uniform, provides detailed but simple information on the benefits from each public safety pension system, Social Security, and public employee deferred compensation. Illinois police and fire professionals receive retirement income from a variety of sources, most of which differ from their private-sector friends and neighbors.

Their deferred compensation is accumulated and paid out under different rules. Understanding the variations and unique situations is necessary to plan and execute a successful retirement. This book is a one-stop shop for retirement benefit information for Illinois state and local police officers and firefighters. Chicago, suburban and downstate, state police, Cook County, other counties, university and college officers, and small-town professionals in the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund. It's all here.The author then expands the scope to examine how public pension plans are structured and funded and discusses some of the "hot topics" in Illinois. How big of a cost-savings will come from the Tier 2 structure? Do police and fire personnel really not live as long as the rest of us? Will municipal bankruptcy endanger Illinois pensions? What can we all do to protect public pensions in Illinois? And more? This information, plus your own knowledge and experience in Illinois public safety, will greatly enhance your understanding of not only your benefits, but also the public pension issues faced by each department, union, employer and the citizens you protect.

Twenty Years of Service
Author: Brandon J. ArchuletaPublisher: University Press of Kansas
ISBN: 0700629769
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Military pension policies are as old as the republic itself and reside at the intersection of American social, economic, and defense policy. But as the nation’s social and economic circumstances underwent dramatic changes over the last half century, military pension policy remained static, stuck in the personnel and retirement model of the industrial age. This book examines why. Integrating policy history, theory, and practice, Twenty Years of Service provides the most comprehensive examination of US military pension policy in a generation. Brandon J. Archuleta sets the stage with an exploration of the rise, evolution, and transformation of the veterans’ policy subsystem from the American Revolution through World War II. The ensuing theoretical overview explains how the military personnel policy subsystem achieved the autonomy it enjoyed from 1948 to 2018; it also offers a new perspective on autonomous policy subsystems in general, which helps to account for the long-term pension policy stasis. In practical terms, Archuleta explores the role of the successful 2015 Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission as an institutional venue for policy change during the congressional budget battles of the 2010s. Through extensive archival research, illustrative case studies, and field interviews with Pentagon bureaucrats, congressional staffers, veterans’ lobbyists, defense scholars, and journalists, Twenty Years of Service brings the policymaking process to life. Its insights will prove invaluable to policy scholars and defense practitioners alike.
