2008 House Bill 5636

Clarify state employee pension double dipping ban

Introduced in the House

Jan. 17, 2008

Introduced by Rep. Lorence Wenke (R-63)

To expand the definition of “employed by the state” in a new law that prohibits a state government employee who retires and begins collecting a pension to then take a state job as a direct employee or working for a contractor, and collect a paycheck and a pension both (double dipping). The bill would clarify that the ban applies to someone who is hired indirectly by the state under a contract with an employment agency, or is hired as an indirect contractor.

Referred to the Committee on Oversight and Investigations
