     4% /year is a pretty healthy increase. Iv'e been retired from a AEP for 16 years and haven't recieved any annual increase.  Using the  formula legislators grant themselves, my pension should have increased 87%  by now.

    Snyder and the Republican Caucus conveniently left this little factoid out of previous conversations and legislation.

Lets see how far this bill goes.
