Employees Deferred Compensation Senate Bill 284 sponsored by Senator Pat Thomas creates the Government Employees Deferred Compensation Trust Fund. The bill protects state employees, who put part of their paycheck into deferred compensation plans, from the state taking from that fund. The current law states that money deducted for retirement or future investment is the state's property until it is transferred to the employee or beneficiary. The bill passed out of the House and was sent to Governor Lawton Chiles for his signature. The cost of education is high.
