Controversial pension bill stalls as talks hinge on boost
A joint House Senate negotiating panel plans a compromise bill including a 20 percent rise in legislative pension benefits. Rep Gladys Marriott says most of the bill is agreed, but senators refuse to concede on the increase, threatening to kill the measure. The plan would raise monthly payments for ten year veterans from 187.50 to 225 and lift other retirement figures, while removing the plan from the general system to appease IRS concerns.
