Committee convened and announced they would take a first look at bill H.8567 and aim to finish in roughly an hour, then take up another bill at 3:30 p.m.; chair/moderator solicited presenters.
Senate Committee on Government Operations held a first look at H.8567, a technical but consequential bill that would reorganize unclaimed property rules, redirect limited unclaimed-property transfers to the Vermont Saves retirement program (capped at $300,000/year through 2040), and move fiduciary oversight of certain post‑employment benefit (OPEB) assets to the Vermont Pension Investment Commission (VPIC). Committee heard testimony from Legislative Council, the treasurer's office and VPIC; no formal vote was taken.
