About TRS Board Meetings
The Teacher Retirement System of Texas was established pursuant to Article 16, Section 67 of the Texas Constitution, which requires TRS to have a Board of Trustees (the “Board”) to administer TRS and invest its funds. The assets of the TRS pension fund are required by state and federal law to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of plan participants and beneficiaries. The Board of Trustees of TRS, the trustee of all plan assets, is responsible for the general administration and operation of TRS, and is authorized by law to adopt rules for the administration of TRS and the transaction of the business of the Board.
Each meeting allows the trustees to review reports and presentations from the various TRS divisions. Trustees ask questions, discuss topics and vote when required. The meetings are broadcast live so that members, retirees and agency stakeholders may watch the proceedings without commuting to the TRS offices.
Public Comment Opportunities
TRS and the Board of Trustees encourage input from the public. Interested parties representing various points of view are allowed time to present their views while permitting the board to conduct its meetings in an efficient and effective manner. Members of the public may provide virtual public comment by registering first with the Board Secretary by submitting an email to publiccomment@trs.texas.gov identifying the name of the speaker and topic.
