LOSAP Legislation

Senator Susan Collins has introduced legislation impacting LOSAP programs.  Until we have secured funding this legislation doesn't impact the LOSAP program in the State of Maine.  Once we have funding this bill will enable portability for firefighters so that they can transfer their account balance to an IRA upon separation of service.
