Senate Sponsors: RADOGNO. Short description: PEN CD-CHGO POL-OCCUP DISEASE Synopsis of Bill as introduced: Amends the Chicago Police Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Raises the minimum occupational disease disability benefit from 50% to 60% of current salary and makes it apply to benefits that have been payable for 7 (rather than 10) years. Makes these changes retroactive to January 1, 2000. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement. Effective immediately. PENSION NOTE (Pension Laws Commission) The fiscal impact of SB 1592 has not been calculated, but is expected to be minor, as there are relatively few (76) occupa- tional disease disability benefit recipients.
