SB 301
County Employees Retirement Law of 1937: employees

Post

Introduced by Assembly Member Grayson

Existing law, the County Employees Retirement Law of 1937 (CERL), prescribes the rights, benefits, and duties of members of the retirement systems established pursuant to its provisions.  Existing law prohibits a resolution, ordinance, contract, or contract amendment under CERL from providing retirement benefits for some, but not all, general members of a county or district.  This bill prohibits a county or district whose officers and employees are enrolled as members of a retirement system under CERL from excluding from membership in the system any employee, group, or classification, other than those excludable officers and employees, as defined.  (Gov’t Code sec. 31566.)  This bill was approved by the Governor on October 13, 2025.

Status:  Enacted. Effective 1/1/2026.
