"Third Reading. Please read the Bill."

"Representative Mah."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. HB4941 is the initiative of one of my constituents who operates a practice providing speech therapy services. Last year, she and other colleagues in her profession received almost no notice when their insurance reimbursement rate was threatened to be reduced by a significant amount by their contracted insurance provider. They were able to organize and push back on something that would've been devastating to their business and harmful to their patients, who have experienced interruption in access to their health care providers and therapeutic treatments. What they have proposed is legislation that requires 90 days prior notice before any rate reduction, no waivers of the right to receive notice, and no retroactive rate reductions. House Floor Amendment 1 was negotiated with the Insurance Council and brings them to neutral. I know of no other opposition, and I request an 'aye' vote."

"Representative Morgan, are you in opposition?"

"Opposition."

"Please state your point."

"Despite being a chief cosponsor in opposition… just for legislative intent, Representative, if you could just confirm. With respect to the insurer obligations to notify the impacted provider of any nonroutine change via email, it is the responsibility of the individual to make sure that the 10200080.docx 8  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 insurer has an updated email address… rather is the responsibility of the provider or health care professional to make sure the insurer has the updated email correct, not the insurer?"

"Yes. That's correct."

"Representative Manley."

"House Bill 4988, as amended, is an initiative of the Alliance to Prevent Legionnaires' Disease. And would require private and governmental water distribution entities to alert their health care facility customers if there is a planned or unplanned disruption in their water supplies. Disruptions in water supplies often result in the releasing of large quantities of harmful bacteria into the water and disturbing the normal innocuous biofilm found on the inside of the pipes. Health care facilities are emphasized since they are… they serve the most vulnerable among us, the elderly and the infirmed. These facilities also have water management plans in place to address their disruptions and safeguard their patients. Most of them do. We worked with the Illinois Hospital Association, the Illinois Health Care Association, the American Water Works Association, so forth and so on, Illinois IEPA and IDPH. We addressed their issues in House Amendment 1. The IHA supports these changes, and I know of no opposition."

The Amendment then makes this subject to appropriations and IDPH to partner with Governors State's College of Health and Human Services and any additional partnerships that may be needed throughout the state to create a 12-month outreach and educational campaign focused on stroke awareness and best practices to be launched in the South Suburbs. It would give stroke recognition and prevention strategies access to reliable sources of information. And the appropriation would be mutually agreed 10200080.docx 14  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 upon IDPH and Governors State University in terms of percentages."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Upon reading the Bill, Members will notice that this is mostly a cleanup in language for the Military and Veterans' Affairs Act.

"Representative Morgan."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. House Bill 5196 is an initiative of the Illinois Department of Human Services. It updates parts of the DHS code that deals with areas of the code that do not define… or updated definition of disability. The reason that matters is because there are various provisions and services that the State of Illinois provides for DHS. Where if we don't have that right definition, we're missing and not capturing those who are identified and… and diagnosed as having a disability. In particular, those who are 18 to 22 who are part of the transition program in high schools. If they're 10200080.docx 21  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 diagnosed as having a disability in the ages of 18 to 22, right now, they're not captured as having a disability for purposes of receiving DHS services. So, it's largely technical, but again, we're doing this to help people make sure they get the services they need. There's no known opposition, and I ask for an 'aye' vote."

"Thank you. I'm proud to bring this Bill to the House. It is about criminal sexual assault. It amends the Criminal Code of 2012 regarding the definition of consent. This was brought to me by a… an intern in my… in my office, a young woman who was the victim and now survivor of assault, who was frustrated with how this had to be handled in the legal system. And uncovered through… partly through her own research, shortcomings, and the legal code related to it. So, let's get to the point here. The current definition in the law is, 'unable to give knowing consent' includes when a victim has taken an intoxicating substance or any controlled substance causing the victim to become unconscious of the nature of the act, and this condition was known or reasonably should've known… been known by the accused, but the accused did not provide or administer the intoxicating substance. You know, that's… that's the Amendment. The current… the current law is if the accused provided the intoxicating substance that rendered the victim unconscious, then… then that is in… that is a crime. The Amendment expands that to include if the person is being attacked took the substance herself or himself depending. This… the reason this is so important is that it removes one of the many vestiges in our law where, somehow, we make the victim of sexual assault, by their own action, somehow share in the guilt of that assault, which to me is absurd. And this has bipartisan support. It came out unanimously. I ask for your support."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. House Bill 5465 is the formal creation of a task force that already exists as a working group. The working group is currently working on removing barriers for licensure for internationally trained and licensed health care professionals in Illinois. These are people who are already trained in their professions as doctors, nurses, and other health care professionals. And they're licensed in their home countries, but they find themselves in Illinois, whether as immigrants or refugees. And unless they're able to regain their license, they work survival jobs and do not contribute their talents to our society. So, we're working closely with IDFPR, and this is a Bill that addresses a shortage of health care professionals and will help develop plans to smooth the path of these professionals to practice in their trained professions in our state. This in no way lower standards, and it simply creates a task force to work on this very important issue. I ask for an 'aye' vote."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. HB5490 is a modernization of our criminal laws related to sexual assault, sexual abuse, and human trafficking, with the ultimate goal to provide survivors the support and healing that they need and to hold offenders accountable. This Bill does about eight things, so bear with me. I'm going to walk through that as quickly as I can. The Bill expands human trafficking protections by including trafficking in our rape shield provisions. The Bill expands the definition of unauthorized recording to include any residence, not just the victim's residence. It expands the definition of grooming and extends the statute of 10200080.docx 32  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 limitations. The Bill replaces all references to child pornography in our statutes to child sexual abuse material. The Bill expands the use of support dogs beyond just for children. The Bill further defines family members for the purposes of sex crimes. The Bill further defines the inability to give knowing consent. And then finally, the Bill classifies a child being coerced into filming a sexual act as a Class 4 felony. This in an initiative of the sexual assault and domestic violence prosecutors in Cook County. And it has the support of the Children's Advocacy Center, the Chicago Alliance Against Sexual Exploitation, and the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police. We've worked closely with the Attorney General's Office on the Bill and intend to make some final changes in the Senate. Happy to entertain any questions."

And when there are cases of financial issues or worse things, like drug addiction, incarceration, or parents who are uninvolved, students are left carrying that burden, not being able to apply for college, scholarships, apprenticeships, or jobs.

"Mr. Speaker and Members of the House, I want to thank our Leader Andrade for all the work that he's been doing on this issue, our catalytic converter problem that we have in the state. There's a lot of Bills that have been out here. And Leader Andrade's been doing a great job, and did a great job, to get us here. One of the Bills that was a part of this Bill that we have before us today is also Dr. Paul. Dr. Paul passed a Bill earlier, and it's on Third, but that Bill is a part of this Bill. I had a Bill that was a part of… that is a part of this Bill as well. So, this is an agreement of most of the Bills that were filed. The problem is, catalytic converter theft in Illinois is a serious problem. Not just in Chicago, but throughout the state, and it's a problem in the country. And I said, several Bills addressing this problem have been proposed. This Bill addresses that problem by offering solutions. It requires recyclable metal dealers to add 10200080.docx 58  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 catalytic converter purchasing to the existing recordkeeping requirements. Basically, someone attempting to sell a catalytic converter to a recyclable metal dealer, that dealer must make a copy of the seller's license that's issued by the Secretary of State. It also prohibits dealers from paying cash for catalytic converters. We hope that this Bill is a solution and deters the theft of catalytic converters here in Illinois. I move for the passage of House Bill 107."

"Representative Walker."

"House Bill 448 is an attempt to deal with what is low- hanging fruit on controlling the increase in property taxes across the State of Illinois and, hopefully, causing some reduction working in concert with the local taxing bodies. To keep in mind, the local taxing bodies set the tax levies, the state does not. But the state can play a partnership with that in setting the playing field, deciding when voters get to go to referendum, various other things. PTELL is the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law that determines when we require a taxing district to in fact go to referendum due to an increase. It is a benign law on its surface, but what we've discovered in looking at this over the years is that it has an unintended consequence. Many taxing districts take the max allowed by PTELL so that in future years they can use that as a base to recalculate what their maximum levy could be. It's like what happens in the corporate world or the military, 10200080.docx 60  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 where if you don't take it this year, you won't get to use it as your base for next year. So, this is a very complex law, but that's the gist of it. I'm trying to remove the incentive to always take the max to protect future increases. So, how do we do that? The proposal in… this is a universally liked proposal, is that if you do not take the max levy allowed by PTELL in any given period, in future years you can calculate the formula as if you did. That is the concept. The specifics are, this will occur… you can look back three years in order to determine the areas where, if you had taken the max, you can use that as a base to calculate the future. We have focused this on where more than 85 percent of the taxes are in the state, and that is on school districts, park districts, library districts, and community college districts to affect the most property taxes that affects individuals. We have done another thing. We thought about, okay, we're trying to solve an unintended consequence. Did we just cause more unintended consequences? Well, one unintended consequence we have in the Bill that we're going to avoid, we don't want to send substantial flexibility in terms of our tax dollars through school funding to school districts that are suffering bad fiscal health and have them turn around and not tax. So, if they are in the watch list or close to watch list in the school funding formula, then they don't get to take this flexibility because we expect their increase school funding from the state to go to education, not to affect their tax calculation. But the bulk of school districts do get this flexibility. The other thing we did is we want to avoid the unintended consequence of sticker shock. Because this has 10200080.docx 61  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 been going on for years, in a given year a school all of a sudden increases the taxes on the taxpayer by a dramatic amount, so we put a limitation in here. In a year where you're recapturing the tax rate of previous years, you can only cause your tax levy to go up a max five percent. And then if you need to… another year to recapture the rest, you can take up to another five percent the following year, and then on. So, you always get to go back to the rate that you would've had. But the thing to recall about this is, this is about lowering taxes. The taxpayer that pays lower taxes because the local bodies choose to lower their taxes, that savings is always there. What this is about is changing the future rates. It does not recapture or claw back any of the taxes not previously paid. So, that's the proposal. I think it's a good start. I do think it's low-hanging fruit, and I hope that you support this."

"Representative Batinick."

"Indicates he'll yield."

"It's school districts, community colleges, park districts, and libraries."

"That's correct."

"That's correct."

"Representative Walker to close."

"This is a first step, but it is a substantial step. And I think the more you look into this Bill and talk it over with your local taxing bodies, the more they're going to like 10200080.docx 63  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 it.

I'd appreciate an 'aye' vote. Know of no opposition."

"Leader Flowers."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Will the Gentleman yield?"

"The Leader will yield."

"Leader Harris, this is not a mandate. Is it… is there going to be any place on the application that they do not have to check off?"

"No, it's not a mandate." 10200080.docx 73  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022

"Is… will there be any place on the application that they do not have to check off? Their personal information."

"Oh, no. You're… nobody puts any personal information other than what's on your form."

"So, you're asking them to check the box for what?"

"If they would like to have the Department of Revenue determine if they're eligible for subsidies on their insurance or for Medicaid. If they check the box, they will find out and they can obtain that insurance."

"And so, by checking that box, all of this information will be going to other departments around the state or within the state?"

"No. The person… they would send information to the person. They don't get your tax information or that kind of thing."

"No. I'm just trying to be clear. I'm trying to be clear that if one of my constituents decide that they do want Medicaid, and they check the box, will this information go to Medicaid, and where else will this information go?"

"Your tax information only stays with the Department of Revenue."

"It just stays with the Department of Revenue?"

"That's who collects the taxes."

"So, how will HFS know that I want Medicaid?"

"They would get a notification… send application from Medicaid or subsidized insurance to Ms. Flowers."

"This says, 'require the director of the Department of Revenue to, as soon as possible, as the state health benefit exchange is operational, make individual income tax 10200080.docx 74  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 information available to the State health benefit exchange.' And it goes on, 'if the disclosure is authorized by the taxpayer, the individual income tax return that contains that information.' So, my point to you is, the Department of Revenue will be disseminating this information if I check it off."

"The information they would need to notify you about your eligibility, yes."

"And so, in regards to Medicaid and in regards to other types of insurance. Am I correct?"

"The idea is to make it as easy as possible for people to find out if they are eligible for coverage and can receive a subsidy so that all the people who are uninsured have opportunities to sign up."

"Is… is insurance still a mandate?"

"I… in what way?"

"Well, no, because at one time you had to have insurance or either pay a hundred dollar fine."

"That was a Federal Law. That…"

"And so, my question to you, because you have this information here… because I know people have gone to the office of public aid to try to get some type of assistance, and they have not been successful. And so, I'm wondering, even with the Department of Insurance, they do want insurance, but unfortunately, they cannot afford the copays and the deductibles. And once they do get the insurance, they just have insurance to protect them. And so, I'm asking you, is insurance still a mandate in this country and, more specifically, in the State of Illinois?" 10200080.docx 75  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022

"I believe that the Federal Law, the insurance mandate was struck down."

"It was struck down?"

"By the Supreme Court."

"And so, yes. I thought so, but I was just double checking with you. And… and so, why is this Bill necessary? Because people go to apply all the time. And I think, with this information being out there, you're giving people the impression that this is required. And the very people, again, who go to the hospital where there should be someone there to fill out his information to qualify them for Medicaid or whatever type of insurance they may be qualified for or health care. But that has not been done. And so, once again, I'm asking, why is this important? And what I'm afraid of, Representative, is I'm sure… I don't know if your information was exposed, but I got three unemployment cards that I never applied for. And so, people are very concerned about how their information is going to be protected. And so, I just want to know…"

"Leader, is that a question? Could we… could you go to the Bill or…"

"Well, yes, it is a question. I want to know how the information is going to be protected because, obviously, with the unemployment experience that we had this year, the people that wanted unemployment couldn't get it. Those of us who didn't apply for it, we got it. I want to know. Yes, I do. I want an answer."

"The different departments of the state go through IT security, and we've had a number of Bills on this already 10200080.docx 76  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 this morning to make our security as strong as possible, Representative."

"Excuse me, one more question, Representative Harris. Is this one-stop shopping for people?"

"It's another avenue for people to come in and find out if they're eligible for either Medicaid or subsidized insurance through the ACA."

"Come in where, Representative? To the Department of Revenue?"

"They put… there's a check box on your tax form. If you're interested, you check it. If you don't check it, then it goes no further."

"Let me go back to my question to you. Is this one-stop shopping? Is this a place where people can come to you, to your office and fill out a form, and then this form would share that they need housing, they need access to health care, they need mental health treatment? Is this a one-stop shopping for people to get the services in which the State of Illinois is supposed to be providing?"

"This deals with health insurance."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. House Bill 4215 creates the Child Extended Bereavement Leave Act, and what we lovingly call it, the Zachary's Parent Protection Act. I received this Bill from a constituent and friend named Laura Kane, of Marshmallow's HOPE, a couple years ago. She unexpectedly lost her son to suicide. And while dealing with the grieving process, she happened to lose her job as well because she could not keep up. And so, she came to me with this Bill, and it pretty much says that when you deal… when a parent has to deal with a death of a child from suicide or homicide, that 10200080.docx 83  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 they are able to use this Child Extended Bereavement Act of either 26 weeks… I'm sorry… 12 weeks if you are 250 or more… of an employer of 250 or more, 6 weeks, an employer of 250 or less. I want to thank Laura for bringing this to my attention. And I truly appreciate your friendship. And so, I ask that you… for an 'aye' vote. I worked with the Chamber of… Illinois Chamber of Commerce to get them to no position, the Department of Labor to get them to no position. I've also spoke to colleagues of mine with a commitment that we will have a more… even more robust Child Extended Bereavement Leave Act or even something similar to that that will help parents who lose a child for a variety of reasons. But for now, my constituent is really focused on this. I'll entertain any questions you may have."

"Representative Slaughter on House Bill 4500."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 4500 is an initiative of the Secretary of State's Office regarding its Department of Business Services. This is a very important department. Its critical duties include incorporating corporations and organizing limited liability companies and partnerships and being the filing office for annual and other reports that need to be filed to keep businesses in good standing in our state. House Bill 4500 amends the Business Organization Act to make consistent and to clarify certain provisions with the intent of streamlining and facilitating business transaction operations within the department. These changes are technical in nature. We did discuss in committee a provision regarding interrogatories. House Bill 4500 harmonizes the interrogatory language throughout our Business Organization Act and makes it consistent with existing language in the Business Corporation Act, the Not For Profit Act of 1986, and the LLC Act of 1994. The Floor Amendment reduces the amount of time a registered business agent can serve and operate after dissolution from five years to three years. Again, this is at the request of a couple committee Members on the other side of the aisle. I don’t believe the Bill ever actually had opposition, but there was discussion. The Amendment, ultimately, came out unanimous. I ask for a 'yes' vote on House Bill 4500." 10200080.docx 88  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022

"Well, that's not covered in the rules, but you're permitted to technically be 'yes' or 'no'. So, please proceed."

"Indicates he will."

"Sure."

"That's correct."

"No, they can't. These interrogatories have always been very narrowly and specifically targeted, and they will continue to be after… if this Bill passes."

"Then the answer's no."

"As the Sponsor, I'm certainly willing to get that provision in there in the Senate if you… if you want. But again, this is harmonizing all the interrogatory language that's already existing in a lot of our other business registration related Acts. And, yeah, if we want to work on that one line or that provision that puts that in statute, let's do that over in the Senate."

"Sure. We… I mean, we had it at five years. We reduced it to three with the Amendment. There is a winding-up period in that, after dissolution, when you're closing out business with clients, we're giving you that time to… to do that. So, you are dissolved, but you do have… well, with the Amendment, three years to close out all of your… your business matters."

"That's correct."

Born into a working- class family of 10 children, Chambers Morgan received little formal education. She began working 10 to 16 hour days at a mill when she was only 11 years old. She moved to Chicago 10200080.docx 111  STATE OF ILLINOIS 102nd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 80th Legislative Day 3/4/2022 when she was 19. Chambers Morgan established the Illinois Women's Alliance and played a pivotal role in organizing the Ladies' Federal Labor Union. She was an integral figure in the fight for an eight-hour work day and for higher wages for women in factories. As a staunch advocate for labor issues, she also investigated and exposed the inhumane and unsafe working condition of Chicago's sweatshops. Elizabeth Chambers Morgan's passion and organizing skills improved the lives of working-class Chicagoans, particularly women and children. Thank you, Mr. Speaker."
