What's NOT Happening Now

We will not see a Cost of Living Increase for KPERS recipients this year. Legislators chose to shorten the session and didn't take the time to hear the bills.  This decision was made by House and Senate leadership.

Contact Senator Ty Masterson and Representative Dan Hawkins to share your concerns.
As a reminder, both HB 2500 (House) and SB 500 (Senate) were introduced. They would have created a commission to review a cost-of-living adjustment for KPERS retirees. We will continue advocating for a study for a COLA.
