COLA for Florida First Responders

Florida lawmakers are pushing to restore cost-of-living adjustments for retired first responders, targeting those who joined the state retirement system after 2011 and retired after five years — offering a minimum 1.5% annual boost starting July 1. This move responds to years of stagnant pensions amid soaring inflation, helping retirees cope with rising costs like food, gas, and insurance. Supporters say it’s not just financial relief — it’s a recruitment tool and a tribute to the risks these heroes take daily, ensuring their service is honored in retirement too.
