Lasee: Changes to Joint Survey Committee on Retirement Systems Coming Out

By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | July 7, 2015

Senator Frank Lasee, co-chair of the Joint Survey Committee on Retirement Systems, said a move to have the body comprised entirely of political appointments is coming out of the budget.

The committee is now made up of 10 members, including lawmakers, a member of the public appointed by the guv, an assistant attorney general and others.  But the Joint Finance Committee’s wrap-up motion included a provision to have five members of the Assembly and five from the Assembly to serve on the body.  “Taking those members off and making it more of a political issue long-term is not a good idea,” Lasee said. “I think it’s a little short-sighted.”

A spokeswoman for Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, R-Juneau, confirmed the change will be made.
