The Capital of Annapolis survey notes others like New Jersey and Florida publish retired officials pensions while Maryland Delaware Virginia and South Carolina do not.

Public pension disclosure remains debated among lawmakers and ex officials including Gov Hughes and Former Gov Schaefer, with estimates of pension amounts cited for several ex leaders.
