HB 5171 provides a one-time supplemental payment and an annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for annuitants of the Judicial Retirement System of Texas Plan One and Plan Two. The bill establishes a 3% annual COLA starting in September 2026 for service retirement, disability retirement, and death benefits. Additionally, a one-time supplemental payment equal to the annuitant’s regular monthly benefit will be issued in September 2025. These adjustments will be implemented only if the legislature appropriates sufficient funds without increasing the system’s unfunded actuarial liabilities​.
