HB1574

PEN CD-IMRF SLEP-EMT

Introduced·1/22/25
Introduced Text

Authorizes sheriff's law enforcement employee status for certain full-time firefighters and EMTs in Illinois.

The bill amends the Illinois Pension Code to authorize sheriff's law enforcement employee (SLEP) status for full-time firefighters and emergency medical technicians (EMTs) in participating municipalities. This status applies only if the municipality's governing authority approves it through an affirmative resolution, which cannot be rescinded. The resolution must specify that SLEP status applies to employment occurring after the resolution's adoption. The bill also amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without state reimbursement.
