					<description><![CDATA[According to CALSTRS 2012 actuarial valuation, the normal cost rate is 18.299% of wages. 

Contributions for teachers who were hired before Jan. 1, 2013, will increase from 8% to 10.25% over three years, which puts them well over the 50% of normal cost. 

&quot; this year’s law to shore up the California State Teachers’ Retirement System ...................DOES NOT...............ignore that framework.&quot;

&quot; 90 percent of the cost of new CalSTRS funding&quot; refers to catch up on the unfunded liability....entirely unrelated to the normal cost. 

AB340 very clearly  &quot; Requires new employees to contribute at least half of normal costs, and sets a similar target for current employees, subject to bargaining. &quot;
