Allows retired judges serving in the Iowa General Assembly to receive judicial retirement system annuities.

The bill amends the judicial retirement system to allow retired judges who are serving in the Iowa General Assembly to receive annuities from the system. Previously, the system could not pay an annuity to a person while they were serving as a state officer or employee. The bill specifies that this exception does not apply to senior judges serving in other capacities. The changes will take effect upon the convening of the 92nd General Assembly in January 2027.
