ALERT!NEWS ALERT: Florida Supreme Court Rules In State’s Favor On 3% Retirement

I am just receiving information that the Florida Supreme court has upheld the State’s right to have government employers levee 3% contribution to the Florida Retirement System (FRS).

At this time I have few details, but it is my understand that this ruling would mean that the current requirement of collecting 3% from all state employees would continue.

I know this is not what mean in State, County, Law Enforcement, Fire, education and more hoped for.
