"An Act relating to the longevity bonus program; and providing for an effective date."
This legislature is a compassionate legislature. In my community the longevity bonus provided a 2 million dollar economic stream to the senior citizens. In the last hours the House last year failed to pass the phase out plan. However, it passed the Senate.
We owe it to our seniors to have a second look. Many did not have time to plan for the immediate loss of their longevity bonus. For one couple, that's a loss of $500.00 per month. I am in favor of a phase out, which will help to provide stability for them in their golden years.
