The sponsor's argument

Why Robert Jackson says this is needed

This legislation is designed to provide New York City Correction offi- cers with more than 25 years of service with continued benefits at one sixtieth of their final average salary. Without this legislative remedy, the most senior correction personnel would be unjustly penalized for continuing to serve the public after more than 25 years of service. This proposal would allow for those dedicated individuals to continue to accrue retirement credits for their service.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
