Why it matters
The bill is intended to improve clarity regarding retirement timing, though the age brackets themselves and the benefits available to retirees will not change. The legislation is part of a larger effort by the House to introduce new federal compensation and tax base issues.
The House endorsed and introduced new legislation that must now be updated pending Senate approval.
