The sponsor's argument

Why Robert Jackson says this is needed

Currently, members of the retirement system employed by Nassau County within a correction officer title do not receive additional service retirement benefits for service rendered beyond twenty-five years. Retention of experienced correction officers remains an important tool for the safe and orderly functioning of Nassau County's local correc- tional facility. Allowing members of the correction officer titles to attain additional service retirement benefits serves the dual purpose of allowing the county to retain needed, experienced correction officer personnel, as well as rewarding such officers for their additional service to the county beyond their eligibility for retirement. FISCAL: Please see fiscal note

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.
