What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, certain individuals who receive a retirement or disability annuity from the Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS) and who are hired by an employer that participates in the WRS must suspend that annuity and may not receive a WRS annuity payment until the individual is no longer in a WRS-covered position. This suspension applies to an individual who 1) has reached his or her normal retirement date; 2) is appointed to a position with a WRS-participating employer or provides employee services as a contractor to a WRS-participating employer; and 3) is expected to work at least two-thirds of what is considered full-time employment by the Department of Employee Trust Funds.
This bill creates an exception to this suspension if 1) the individual retired from WRS-covered employment as a teacher for grades kindergarten to 12 after July 2, 2013; 2) at least 30 days have elapsed from the date the individual left WRS-covered employment with a school district; 3) the individual is rehired as a substitute teacher; 4) at the time the individual initially retires from a school district, the individual does not have an agreement with any school district to return to employment; 5) the individual elects to not become a participating employee at the time the individual is rehired or enters into a contract after retirement; and 6) the individual is hired between the effective date of the bill and August 1, 2026. In other words, the bill allows a WRS teacher annuitant to return to work as a substitute teacher with a participating employer and elect to not become a participating employee for purposes of the WRS and instead continue to receive his or her annuity between the effective date of the bill and August 1, 2026.
