House File 2183 - Introduced HOUSE FILE 2183 BY OLSON , KAUFMANN , and BAETH A BILL FOR An Act concerning benefits relating to members of the municipal 1 fire and police retirement system. 2 BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF IOWA: 3 TLSB 5786YH (3) 90 jm/ns
H.F. 2183 Section 1. Section 411.1, subsection 6, Code 2024, is 1 amended by striking the subsection and inserting in lieu 2 thereof the following: 3 6. “Cancer” means a group of diseases involving abnormal 4 cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other 5 parts of the body. 6 Sec. 2. IMPLEMENTATION OF ACT. Section 25B.2, subsection 7 3, shall not apply to this Act. 8 EXPLANATION 9 The inclusion of this explanation does not constitute agreement with 10 the explanation’s substance by the members of the general assembly. 11 This bill concerns benefits relating to members of the 12 municipal fire and police retirement system (411 system). 13 The bill expands the definition of “cancer” by striking 14 references to specific cancers and inserting a more generalized 15 description. 16 By expanding the definition of “cancer” to include more 17 cancer diagnoses, the bill likewise expands the availability of 18 accidental disability and death benefits to members of the 411 19 system who have a cancer diagnosis. 20 The bill may include a state mandate as defined in Code 21 section 25B.3. The bill makes inapplicable Code section 25B.2, 22 subsection 3, which would relieve a political subdivision from 23 complying with a state mandate if funding for the cost of 24 the state mandate is not provided or specified. Therefore, 25 political subdivisions are required to comply with any state 26 mandate included in the bill. 27 -1- LSB 5786YH (3) 90 jm/ns 1/ 1
