A.G. File No. 2011-018

Public Employee Retirement

July 25, 2011

 


This measure amends the State Constitution to require public pension or retirement systems to “invest and maintain at least 85 percent of the system’s assets” in California-based businesses. The measure defines a California-based business to be one “in which at least 70 percent of its employees are employed within California.” Public pension or retirement systems would be required to comply with this new requirement beginning January 1, 2016.
