Urging Lawmakers to follow their own laws The LEOFF I Coalition will take whatever steps necessary to prevent any attempt to terminate or restate RCW 41.26, the LEOFF I Law. Our official position is that the LEOFF I pension funds are assets held in trust for pensions and pension benefits. The enabling legislation was passed into law with the intent and goal of using the pension fund and any surplus to fund, to the extent possible, benefit increases for Plan I members Furthermore, employer contributions to the LEOFF I pension fund are considered deferred compensation and are part of the pension trust. Therefore, employers should not share in the pension surplus. We urge you to repeat this message to your elected legislators, the Governor, and your brothers and sisters in LEOFF I.
