Summary:
The meeting began with quorum, approval of the prior minutes, and an announcement that the June meeting had been canceled and replaced by this combined May/June meeting; the next official PPOB meeting was announced for July 21 at 2:30. Staff then gave an overview of the Public Pension Oversight Board’s required actuarial audit process, explaining that House Bill 238 requires a review every five years of the retirement systems’ actuarial assumptions and methods, funded by the systems themselves. The presentation distinguished this audit from a financial or forensic audit, described the three possible audit levels (full replication, limited/spot review, or basic review), and noted that the last audit in 2021 was a level one performed by Milleman Consulting at a cost of about $190,000. Members discussed timing for the next audit cycle, with a request to LRC likely needed in July or August to target the June 30, 2026 valuation, and several members expressed interest in another level one review. Questions also addressed whether prior audits found major issues; staff said the 2021 review was generally clean but recommended more consistency in reporting and assumptions across systems.
The committee then welcomed new staff and interns, including Odet Guanzi of KPPPA and Team Kentucky intern Amamira Bowman. Bo Barnes of the Teachers Retirement System presented an overview of the statutory framework for reemployment after retirement under KRS 161.605. He explained that the law is intended to let retirees return to help with staffing needs, do so in an actuarially sound way through required contributions, and keep TRS compliant with federal tax rules for a qualified plan under section 401(a). Barnes described the required breaks in service and earnings limits for retirees returning part-time or full-time, including the three-month or 12-month break depending on the employer, the 6,900-day limit, and the daily wage threshold based on years of service. He also noted a lightly used critical shortage program that allows school districts to hire retirees without a wage cap, while still observing the break-in-service rules.
Members asked questions about who decides the scope and level of the actuarial audit, how the audit would treat leave balances and other benefit-related items, and whether the prior level one audit identified substantial problems. Staff said the committee would request the audit, but LRC would handle contracting, and that the audit scope could include items like sick leave and annual leave costs if requested. On the reemployment topic, Barnes emphasized that the rules are designed to avoid pre-arranged retire-and-return arrangements that could jeopardize TRS’s tax-qualified status. No formal votes were taken beyond approving the minutes, and the meeting concluded with the presentations and discussion of these pension oversight issues.

Summary:
The Senate Committee on Rules met with a quorum present and heard three housekeeping/statutory revision bills. Chair Passidomo introduced the committee’s new staff director, and the committee proceeded quickly through the agenda with no public appearance forms, questions, or debate on any of the bills.
SB 100, the Adoption Act, prospectively adopts the 2026 Florida Statutes as an official document and adopts the statute materials passed by the 2025 regular session as official state statute law. SB 102 deletes statutory provisions that were previously repealed or expired and are now without effect. SB 104 is the General Reviser's Bill, which removes obsolete language, updates cross-references, and corrects grammatical and typographical errors in the Florida Statutes.
Each bill was reported favorably by roll call vote. After the votes, several senators asked to be recorded as voting favorably on tabs 1 and 2, and the committee adopted that request without objection. The meeting then adjourned, with members reminded that the committee would meet again on Thursday.

Summary:
The Senate Natural Resources Committee approved the January 13, 2026 minutes and held Senate Bills 1041 and 11676 by request for further review. The committee then heard Senate Bill 1197, which would allow irrigation grandfather rights and associated water duty in subsequent active management areas (AMAs) to be sold, leased, or transferred within the same AMA. The sponsor said the bill is intended to help wineries and other farmers in the Wilcox and Douglas areas adjust fields and expand while staying within existing water limits. Opposition testimony from Sierra Club and Rural Arizona Action argued the bill could increase groundwater pumping unless it includes stronger safeguards, such as a net reduction in water use and clearer ties to AMA management goals. The City of Wilcox and the Department of Water Resources were neutral but said the bill needs more work on consistency, oversight, and transparency. The committee passed SB 1197 on a 4-3 vote, with one member not voting.
The committee then unanimously passed Senate Bill 1198, which continues the Arizona Beef Council for eight years until July 1, 2034. Testimony from the council’s executive director was supportive, and members discussed the importance of the beef industry and the value of longer continuation periods for agency review. Senate Bill 1199, which continues the Arizona State Veterinary Examining Board for eight years until July 1, 2034, also passed unanimously. Members used the discussion to raise broader concerns about the shortage of rural and large-animal veterinarians and the need for future funding and workforce support.
Finally, the committee considered Senate Concurrent Memorial 1004, urging Congress to clarify the EPA’s powers and end what the sponsor described as regulatory overreach. Supporters framed it as a request for Congress to fix unclear federal law, while opponents said it would weaken science-based environmental protections and deny climate and public health realities. The memorial passed 4-3 with one not voting. The committee then adjourned.
