Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Please proceed." Davis, J.: "Leader McCombie has a Resolution for adoption honoring the life of Dallas Ingemunson, who passed away on November 4, 2023. He is from my district, so I'll be sharing a few brief words about this Resolution. Dallas was a lawyer and was elected as Kendall County State's Attorney for a historic six terms. He was a monumentous leader of the local Republican Party and even served as the treasurer and the interim chairperson of the Illinois Republican Party. But here's something I think we'll all greatly appreciate about him. I'm just going to read these two whereases. It says: WHEREAS, As a state's attorney, Dallas Ingemunson led the charge to create the Office of the Illinois State's Attorneys Appellate Prosecutor, the Springfield-based office that assists in prosecuting criminal cases when requested to do so and at the direction of the state's attorney, and was solely 10300068.docx 2 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024 prosecuting criminal cases when duly appointed by a court having jurisdiction; and WHEREAS, The dedicated personnel of this office, which Dallas Ingemunson helped to create, have played a key role in the prosecutions of some of Illinois' worst criminal acts. So, that was a great thing that he did on behalf of all Illinois' citizens. He was a great friend and mentor, including former House Republican Leader Tom Cross, who also shares Kendall County heritage roots. And I just want to highlight his family in closing. It says: WHEREAS, While working hard as a student in law school, Dallas Ingemunson married his true love and partner, Dodie Ingemunson on October 5, 1963; they were together for more than 60 years, which is incredible, and by the end of their journey, they had three sons, Gregg, Kirk, and Boyd, two daughters-in-law, Kate and Kathy, and ten grandchildren, as well as countless friends and kinsfolk; therefore… before the therefore, actually. To Gregg, Kirk, and Boyd, greatly appreciate your friendship and your dad will be greatly missed. There are few like Dallas in the State of Illinois. So, therefore, be it RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ONE HUNDRED THIRD GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we mourn the passing of Dallas Ingemunson and extend our sincere condolences to his family, friends, and all who knew and loved him. And if we could please take a moment of silence in honor of Dallas." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "The chamber will take a moment of silence. Thank you. Representative Huynh is recognized." 10300068.docx 3 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024

Hoan Huynh (D)

"Thank you. On behalf of the Asian American Caucus, eight strong, I rise to present House Resolution 590, which is to celebrate the Lunar New Year, which is happening this Saturday, February 17… no, 10.

And we… we will have treats for everyone next time we come back to Springfield from Chicago to celebrate this… this holiday. So, thank you so much everyone for your time. And on behalf of the Asian American Caucus as well, we… we appreciate you taking the time to celebrate this… this year." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Representative Ozinga, for what reason do you seek recognition?" 10300068.docx 5 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024

Tim Ozinga (R)

"Personal privilege." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Please proceed."

Tim Ozinga (R)

"Members of the House, I want to draw your attention to House Bill 4866 that Representative Ugaste and I filed this week. It has the power to transform lives of millions of individuals and families for generations to come. Before I talk about HB4866, I'd like to share a piece of my personal story. My grandparents were Greek immigrants who boarded a ship across the Atlantic with little more than a dream to start a family in America, the land of opportunity. I vividly remember the early stories grandma would tell me of her and grandpa digging the ditches for the sewer and water for their house while she was pregnant with a child, working odd jobs to make ends meet, and wondering how they were going to put food on the table for a Thanksgiving meal. My grandpa's passion was to… to ministry, where he served as a megaphone touting street preacher on the streets of Chicago. It was not uncommon for him to come home injured because he had gotten roughed up on the streets. One time, someone threw a glass bottle at his head, causing him to bleed, but he never stopped preaching. It was also not uncommon for him to surprise my grandma with guests that he met out on the streets of Chicago and bring them home for dinner, which she loved. Thankfully, my grandma was an early female entrepreneur and supported grandpa in his mission of ministry. She started a local day care business that supported the family and showed them the way to keep on dreaming the American dream. Through hard work and determination, they were able to raise three children. My two uncles both enlisted in the service, attended college, 10300068.docx 6 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024 and later started their own business, a dental practice in Oak Lawn. Mom also went on to college and became an interior designer. Each of their three children went on to have six kids of their own, and I am proud to be a grandson of these Greek immigrants. Many of you echo similar stories as mine. Many of those that have come before us have had the opportunity to accomplish the American dream. Unfortunately, there is a great injustice occurring in our state today, an injustice that we have the power to fix. This injustice is the growing chasm of the haves and the have-nots in our state. Many communities across our state are struggling just to catch their breath, let alone dream of the future. Why are some struggling communities across our state paying four times the effective tax rate than more affluent communities in the very same county? This is wrong, and we can do better. Why are struggling communities afforded the right to safe streets, quality education, and good paying jobs? This is wrong, and we can do better. Why are struggling communities' ability to believe and achieve the American dream being suffocated by a lack of opportunity? This is wrong, and we must do better. Many families, communities, and businesses in Illinois are struggling to survive under our state's property tax burden. That is why Rep. Ugaste and I have introduced House Bill 4866. This is groundbreaking legislation that will establish the Education Property Tax Relief Fund. Once established, this fund will not only finance our schools the way they should be, but it will also reduce the property tax bill for some schools by up to 15 percent by awarding property tax grants to local school districts. All this can be done without the 10300068.docx 7 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024 need to raise any additional taxes and would result in an estimated $82.4 billion in property tax relief for residents across the state over the course of the next 21 years. We must not stand in the way of our neighbors to believe that their kids and grandkids can do better and accomplish more than they ever hoped or dreamed. Together, we can stand up and lead the way to transform lives of millions of individuals and families for generations to come. Please join us in supporting House Bill 4866." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Representative Ugaste, for what reason do you seek recognition?"

Dan Ugaste (R)

"Morning, Madam Chair. Point of personal privilege, please." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Please proceed."

Dan Ugaste (R)

"Thank you. It's been my pleasure, as we get started again in this General Assembly, to meet with many of you as we go throughout our areas where we live, the districts that abut each other, and we meet with various leaders in our communities to discuss what's important to all of them for the coming General Assembly, how what we do affects all their lives. And we state that what we do does impact everybody throughout the State of Illinois. Unfortunately, what I'm seeing in the news are not just how our actions affect people throughout the State of Illinois, but our lack of action. Because we have something left over from the end of last year that we've yet to accomplish, and that is re-upping the Invest in Kids Act. Nine thousand five hundred underprivileged children are about to lose their best chance at a bright future because we are not taking action. I'm reading story 10300068.docx 8 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024 after story day after day in the press about schools having to close and the students are being affected and how the families are being affected. Unfortunately, today, the Tribune's story was about a single mother that has two young sons that are directly going to be impacted by this, as the Catholic school one of them was attending, and one was probably about to attend, is going to close because we did not re-up the Invest in Kids Act, a tax credit the helps the disadvantaged. We still have time. Pretty soon, we are going to be out of time. Once these schools start on their process of closing, there will be no turning this back. They will close. These kids will lose this opportunity. And not just the kids who are getting credit, but if these schools have to close because the credit isn't there, then guess what, folks? We've just impacted more than those 9,500 kids who are betting their futures on this type of education. We have the Bills. We have 40 votes we're willing to put on it. You have the power to have the Bills called. Please work together with us and help the children of Illinois. Thank you." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Leader Buckner, for what reason do you seek recognition?"

Kam Buckner (D)

"Point of personal privilege, please." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Please proceed."

Kam Buckner (D)

"Thank you, Madam Speaker. For the five years that I've been in this Body, many of you have gotten to know the backbone of my district office, who is my chief of staff, Dulana Reese-Campbell. Two days ago, her and her husband, Jeremy, welcomed their first child, Jeremiah Ray Reese- Campbell, six pounds, seven ounces. Mom's healthy, baby's 10300068.docx 9 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024 healthy, everybody's happy. And so, I just wanted to give a shoutout to that family and to welcome Jeremiah to the world." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Representative Morris is recognized. Representative Morris."

Yolonda Morris (D)

"Good afternoon to my esteemed collages and those watching in the gallery. For today's moment in black history, I bring to you a fellow health care worker, labor supporter, and activist, Brenetta Howell Barrett. Barrett was born in Chicago in 1932. She grew up in a home on 43rd in St. Lawrence in the Kenwood neighborhood. She was the first joined activism after a school assembly led by legendary activist and actor Paul Robeson. After graduating from DuSable High School, she moved to North Lawndale, which she would call home for the rest of her life. During this time, she began fighting for workers… for working people as a journalist and reporter for papers such as the Lawndale Booster, Muhammad Speaks, and the West Side Gazette. While serving as a regional director of the NAACP, she directly challenged racist systems of power by working with fellow activist Timuel Black, Jesse Jackson, and others to organize the Chicago Freedom Movement, which helped her to spur the passage of the Fair Housing Act of 1968. In 1976, she helped the State Senator Harold Washington organize his first mayoral campaign and later served in his administration. In the 1990s, Barrett fought to address… fought to address the HIV/AIDS epidemic during the time of great ignorance and stigma around the conditions, working to help black LGBT youth receive care, counseling, and drug… drug addiction treatment. Today, at 91 years of age, Barrett is a living legend. Let's give a round of applause and a 10300068.docx 10 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024 heartfelt thanks for this phenomenal woman, West Sider, fierce shero. Thank you." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Representative McLaughlin, for what reason do you seek recognition?"

Martin McLaughlin (R)

"Thank you, Madam Speaker. Rise for a point of personal privilege." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Please proceed."

Martin McLaughlin (R)

"I… before we leave the chamber today and head home, I just wanted to acknowledge my appreciation of the Governor, Cook County president, and the mayor meeting, I believe, earlier this week as it relates to the greatest humanitarian crisis this state has ever faced, which is the immigrant, illegal alien, asylum seekers. Not really sure what quite sure the excepted vernacular is. And frankly, I'm not as interested in that as I am in the Governor's comments when he came out of a press conference and stated that his staff has been working on this problem for some time. As someone that sits on the Revenue & Finance Committee, I believe that we should know the number that the Governor's Office, the mayor, and Toni Preckwinkle believe that our state can accept and, more importantly, afford. Last year, to remind this Body, at 1:30 in the morning, we were handed a budget that allocated up to $1.2 billion of the state $5.1 billion budget to go to the illegal migrant crisis. My interest and my hope is that the Governor and his staff will be transparent and bring these numbers forward so that we can understand where the money's is going to be spent, who's going to receive it, where the contracts are going, and who is going to be benefitting from those contracts, in addition to the services that we will be 10300068.docx 11 STATE OF ILLINOIS 103rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 68th Legislative Day 2/8/2024 providing, whether it's health care, schools, public safety, and the like. My final comment is this. The Governor said that all the principals were in the room on this discussion. I couldn’t disagree more. The principals in the room should have been 12 million Illinois citizens that expect us to spend their money wisely and efficiently and, more importantly, the businesses and the families that pay the taxes to carry the water in this state that fund and finance every dollar that comes through here. So, please, my friends on the other side of the aisle, join me in demanding and expecting transparency to know the number of migrants, illegal aliens, or whatever you would like to qualify them as, how many, how many we can afford, and what services we'll be taking from current citizen programs in the state. Let's be transparent, let's ask our people in our districts what they want, and let's represent them properly. Thank you, Madam Speaker." Speaker Hernandez, B.: "Mr. Clerk, Committee Reports."
