Iowa Senate Passes Teachers Annuity Bill In 1939 Session
The Iowa Senate approved a teachers annuity and pension plan by a 33 to 8 vote, setting retirement at 60 with disability options. The measure envisions a $530,000 annual state outlay, matched by teacher and state contributions, with maximum pensions near $150 monthly and annuities based on the last decade’s average salary. The House later tackles a beer law revision and budget bills as other fiscal items loom.
