Reverend Carlos."
"For the invocation and meditation today, I've chosen a scene from the new testament in which a man had to wrestle with the political decision. His conscience told him one thing. The people demanded another. The quote is from St. John's gospel, the 19th Chapter. Reentering the praetorian, Pilate said to Jesus, 'Where do you come from?' But Jesus made no answer. Pilate then said to him, 'Are you refusing to speak to me? Surly you know I have power to release you and I have power to crucify you.' 'You would have no power over me,' replied Jesus, 'if it had not been given you from above. That is why the one who handed me over to you has the greater guilt.' You would have no power if it had not been given you from above. Heavenly Father, send Your spirit upon this Assembly of people who experience power and political influence. Help them realize and be conscious of the fact that any authority, any power or influence they have comes to them from You and the people they represent. Give them strength to endure the many meetings they attend and to read intelligently and critically the materials they are presented. And Father, we ask You to give them Your wisdom. This Assembly needs to be wise as serpents and meek as lambs. Let Your spirit of wisdom permeate their minds and hearts so they know that the glory of this life passes, but Your truth does not. Finally, let them cooperate and work together to accomplish 1 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 the noble task You have given them by bringing them here. We ask You all these gifts through Your Son, Jesus, who lives with You and the Holy Spirit. One God, forever and ever. Amen."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Amendment #2 adds to the original good Bill proposed by Representative Bowman to make some technical changes and some other cleanup changes in the Victims Rights Bill that was passed by this General Assembly last year. One of the things that it does is it requires notice in advance to the victim of his right to present... his or her right to present a victim impact statement at the sentencing hearing so that there will not be bifurcated sentencing hearings or the need for continuances because the victim has not been notified of that right.

This changes the award referred to in the original Bill from 5,000 or 10% of the annual savings to 1,000 for a proposed saving of at least $20,000 in any fiscal year - provides that the General Assembly shall make annual appropriations for the award payment purposes.

"I wanted to."
"... Mr... The Gentleman from DuPage, Mr. McCracken, moves for the adoption of Amendment 2 to House Bill 578. Is there any discussion? The Gentleman from Cook, Mr. Cullerton."
"Yes, Representative McCracken, are you aware of what Amendment #3, if adopted, would do to Amendment #2?"
"I haven't gotten that far."
"Well, It's our understanding that Representative 41 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 Ropp, perhaps, may not want to go with Amendment #2, he may want to go with Amendment #3; and, as a result, I think it might not be a good idea to adopt Amendment #2. I think maybe what we should do is adopt Amendment #3 and go to Third Reading, then if Representative Ropp wants to try Amendment #2, we can bring it back with the permission of the Sponsor and discuss it."
"Well, why don't we just hold it now on Second Reading? We don't know if we'll have permission of the Sponsor."

"Further discussion?"
"What's the difference?"
"Mr. Cullerton."
"We'll compromise. We'll table Amendment #2, but we won't move to table Amendment #3."
"No. I'm asking you to hold it for one day."
"Okay. Well, I'm not the Sponsor."
"Alright. Mr. Cullerton has moved to table Amendment #2 to House Bill 578. All those in favor signify by saying 'aye', all those opposed signify by saying 'no'. Yes, Mr. Ewing, what did you... purpose do you seek recognition?"
"Now, let's not get into a 'brouha' here. He asked to 42 36th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 8, 1985 have it taken out of the record. Let's take it out of the record and move on. Sponsor Ropp isn't here..."

"Mr. Speaker, we want to take the Bill out of the record. Just take it out of the record."
"Mr. Ewing, the appropriate procedure is to... for me to declare the vote. They have asked for... they made a Motion. They're entitled to. Now, if Mr. Cullerton even at this late date wishes to withdraw his Motion to table, I would allow nim to do that. If Mr. Curran, then, wishes to take the Bill out of the record, I would allow that; but, at this point, I am looking... I am... Mr. Cullerton is seeking recognition. For what purpose do you seek recognition?"
"Yes, I wouldn't... I would be happy to withdraw my Motion to table, but I think the points you made earlier on here that if a... these Bills have to be moved or they're not going to be called. And by Representative Ropp being present, he's intentionally jeopardizing Representative Curran's Bill. And we can't just... you know, we can hold it for one day. That's fine. But, if this happens repeatedly, I think we have to... we're going to have to have some Motion to table. That's all. I'll withdraw my Motion."
"Alright. Mr. Cullerton has withdrawn his Motion. The Bill is on the Order of Second Reading. It has not been taken out of the record. We are now on Amendment #2 to House Bill 578. Yes, Mr. Curran, for what purpose do you seek recognition?"

The cost for certification is minimal, and as a practical matter, many of the physical centers presently have certified CPR personnel at the present time. This Amend... This Amendment would simply require that this safety feature be made available to all fitness centers. The Bill would not cost the state anything and its purpose is to save lives and promote safety. Ladies and Gentlemen, I ask for your favorable vote on House Bill 112."

"Where did this Bill come from? What was the thought Kubik: behind it that brought it to being?" "The Bill... The origination of the Bill was a constituent of mine who had a brother who died due to the fact that he was unable to receive CPR and so that was the genus of the 56 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 Bill. We found out later that many centers did not offer this although... although most do, but some don't, and it's a simple practice that is very easy to learn, and should be made available to all centers."
"The one word you used in that thing was simple. I read this and I find there is a lot of, you know, personal problems that I see with the Bill and I'm... I think it's too bad that you picked up a Bill like this for your first Bill with all the complicated processes with it. That's all I have, Mr. Speaker."
"Further discussion? The Gentleman from St. Clair, Mr. Stephens."
"... for a question? Gentleman yield for a question?"
"Indicates he will yield for a question."
"Representative, is this your first Bill?"
"Yes, Sir."
"The process of CPR is, indeed, something that anyone can learn and I urge a favorable vote on this Bill. It's very important and I'd like to point out that it is his first Bill."
"Thank you, Representative."
"Gentleman from Cook, Mr. Brookins."
"Yes, Mr. Speaker, will the Gentleman live... yield for a question?"
"Yes, Sir."
"I have a little workout group of five or ten people. Would I be required to have a specialist?"
"The Bill is basically geared for those centers that offer it... large centers that offer it as a... as a service. It's not really aimed at the smaller centers."
"I guess at my age bracket I think that's a good Bill and a fine idea."
"Gentleman from Cole, Mr. Weaver." 57 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36ta Legislative Day May 8, 1985
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Will the Sponsor yield?"
"Indicates he will yield for a question."
"Representative, what is the cost involved in a... in someone taking a CPR course?"
"Many of the... many groups offer it for free, but most... the most it could cost anyone is between ten dollars or... for ten dollars or less. It's a course that takes less Weaver: than four hours. Many of the physical fitness centers that offer it now have a certified instructor who then teaches the otner people in the fitness center this particular safety skill. So, it's a very minimal cost." "So, it's either basically a free service or minimal cost to provide a life-saving capability with a physical center, right?"
"Absolutely. Absolutely."
"Thank you."
"Further discussion? The Gentleman from Marion, Mr. Friedrica."
"Would the Sponsor yield?"
"Indicates he'll yield for question."
"I had a call from a friend of mine who operates one of these places near Decatur and he says he... a lot of the people have keys. They can go and come as they please and go and exercise and do whatever they want to. And he doesn't feel like he can keep some person like this on duty twelve... twenty-four hours a day. How do we handle that?"
"Representative, this Bill was not aimed at those kinds of centers. It's aimed at the physical fitness centers that offer... that are larger centers that offer a... it as a service. Not the small, as you will, private type centers that would have, you know, five, ten, fifteen members."
"I don't know how many members he has, out he felt he came under this Bill and he was going to have to do one of 58 STATE OF ILLINOIS 34th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 two things, either comply with the law, if it passes, or he was going to have to preclude people from coming in on their own when they wanted to. And I assumed he had... he thinks he has enough membership that he would be required to do it."
"It would not apply to them, Representative."
"The Lady from Lake, Ms. Stern."
"Mr. Speaker, as one of the rather elderly athletes who currently does her thing at the Y here or at the Chicago Health Club in Vernon Hills, I am very much interested in seeing that this kind of protection is offered, and I think there are a great many folks just like me who are liable to drop of a coronary at any moment and in need of CPR. I urge an 'aye' vote on this."
"Thank you."
"The Gentleman from Winnebago, Mr. Hallock."
"I Move the previous question."
"The Gentleman from Winnebago, Mr. Hallock, moves the previous question be put. All those in favor signify by saying 'aye', those opposed "no". In the opinion of the Chair, the 'ayes' have it. The previous question will be put. Mr. Kubik, to close."

"Could you explain to us what... First of all, first question, was Amendment #2 put onto the Bill?"
"Yes."
"Would you explain to the Body what Amendment #2 does, please?"
"Well, the Amendment #2 had nothing to do with the driver's license. It had to do with... there was some ambiguity in the seat belt law and where they may require farm vehicles, tractors and so forth crossing the road to have seat belts when they cross the state road and this just removed that ambiguity where they do not have to have seat belts on tractors and other farm equipment."
"Tractors I can understand. The... what... you know, you have on here mobile equipment. What exactly are you meaning by mobile equipment?"
"Well, whatever the Secretary of State means. He was the one who wrote the Amendment and I understood it was from going from one side of the road to the other, getting to other farm land only. It's not traveling up and down the road."
"Does the Amendment state that?"
"I assume since we have discussed it here that anybody who doubts that that's the meaning of it will be reassured that that is the meaning."
"In other words, we are basically talking about crossing a road. We are not talking about if they have two miles to drive down the road to another plot of land?" 63 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day Flinn: May 8, 1985 mean "Well, I think we are talking...

"Well, very simply, the law doesn't prohibit that now."

"Representative Countryman."
"Thank you, Madam Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 188 deals with the question of certain dams that have been built in the State of Illinois, which were built to specifications at the time they were built. Many of these dams were built in the 50's, 60's and early 70's, involved lake properties that many of us have in our districts, and essentially, what has happened is the Department of Transportation, in conjunction or basing themselves upon a study by the Corps of Engineers, Army Corps of Engineers has essentially increased the standards for the amount of rainfall which is allowed in any period of time. And, therefore, requiring these dams to be rebuilt to standards that are extremely costly. What this Bill does is grandfather any existing dam from those standards that the Department of Transportation has set forth. It does... It provides that if the dam should be unsafe in any way then that dam must be corrected and repairs must be made. But essentially what you are talking about in many of the districts, in Representative Mulcahey's district and my district, are that these private lake communities that have dams would have to spend in excess of a million dollars apiece to change the projected rainfall in any period of time from 26 hours... 26 inches of rain in a... in a 24 hour period to 26 inches of rain in a six hour period.

"She will yield for a question."
"Yes, Representative, I have a question concerning the issue of seniority. Our analysis indicates that employee with continue to accrue seniority during the period of the leave, but the Bill says 'seniority...' and I'm quoting, 'shall not be reduced,' during the leave. What is your intent?"
"I believe that the analysis is inaccurate. The employee would still be considered being in continuous service, but at least if the Civil Service Board set up the same kinds of rules and regulations that the Central... the Department of Central Management Services has established, it is my understanding that they would not accrue additional seniority during that time, but the Bill's provision, as I understand it, simply means that they don't have to go back and start over again because they have had that leave. They don't come in as a new employee. They come in with the seniority that they had at the beginning of the leave."
"Okay, second question dealing with this issue. The employees and the dependents are entitled to any coverages which existed at the commencement of the leave. In order to be entitled to that, does the employee have to pay to the state the full premium incident to that coverage?"

"House Bill 197, a Bill for an Act to amend an Act to revise the law in relationship to names. Third Reading of the Bill."
"Representative Preston."
"Thank you, Madam Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 197 is recommended by the Illinois State Bar Association. It revises the Act in relation to names. It came out of the recommendations of the Illinois Supreme Court where the Courts currently have no guidelines, no criteria, where by statute they are to take into consideration any specific criteria in determining whether or not they should approve the change of a name. What this, House Bill 197 does, is it gives the Court criteria to take into consideration certain elements when the name change of a minor is being petitioned for in the Courts. And among the criteria that the Court now, with this legislation, will be charged to consider is the best interests of the child, taking all relevant factors into consideration. And among those relevant factors are included the wishes of the child's natural parents, the wishes of the person having custody of the child and the wishes of the child himself or herself. Also to be considered by legislation is the interaction of the child with his or her parents, step-parents, interaction with siblings and step-siblings and other persons who affect the best interests of the child and the child's adjustment to his or her home, school and community. What the Bill does, it establishes a rebuttable presumption that favors the continued use of the given name, the father's name. It's a 71 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 rebuttable presumption, but that presumption is there and it may be rebutted, but the Court, in looking at the factors, will take all sorts of factors by statute which now do not exist in legislation so the various Courts throughout Illinois were in a bit of a quandry as to what to consider and when to approve and when not to approve name changes. The Supreme Court wanted that cleared up with specific criteria which House Bill 197 does and I ask for your 'aye' vote."
"The Gentleman has moved for the passage of House Bill 197, and on that question, the Gentleman from McHenry, Representative Klemm."
"Will the Sponsor yield for a question?"
"He will yield for a question."
"What's the procedure now in law to simplify... to change the name of a child, let's say?"
"Representative Preston."
"Representative, there is petition that's filed with the court. The petition sets out the child's name and the new name and some relevant factors. But what the Court does not have is statutory guidelines on what the Court is to consider in determining whether or not to approve that name change."
"Does the Courts normally grant these name changes... I have been looking at..."
"Yes, they do."
"I'm looking at a scenario that says that perhaps maintenance and child support is being paid by a father. The mother wishes to change the name. The father really has little to say about losing his own name to his child, but continues to supply and provide maintenance for that child. Doesn't that scenario put that person, that man, normally, because he'd be losing his name normally, as 72 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day somewhat at a discriminative disadvantage?" May 8, 1985
"Yes, it certainly would, but that's not the... that's not the case. That is not how it operates. Under the present prevailing system, when there is the name change of a minor being considered, there is notice given to the natural parents and an opportunity for those parents to be heard. Right now, under existing law, there is a presumption that the name of the father shall remain the name of the child, and again, under existing law, it's a rebuttable presumption, as it would be in this legislation. But under existing law, the Court has no guidelines of what to consider. One Judge may say, "We'll grant that name change because the person having custody of the child desires it.' Well, under this Bill, that wouldn't be permissible because the Court is directed to consider much more than only the interests and the desire of the person having custody of the child. They are also charged now to consider the natural father's desires, to consider the circumstances that the minor child is in in relation to his or her step-brothers and step-sisters, natural siblings and to take all that into consideration. Right now, there are no guidelines as to what the Court may or may not take into consideration."
"What I am concerned about is you said that the Courts now use the presumption that the name will not be changed unless we do something. I am wondering if this will be interpreted as saying that no longer does the father who has the name of that child any more rights to keeping that child's name. Therefore, it's open... it's open in Court to change it, rather than the protecting... the protection that he... the father normally had when he went into Court, that it wouldn't be normally changed because that was the presumption that would stay with that child." 73 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day
May 8, 1985 "Well, this really doesn't change the presumption and it's certainly not the legislative intent here to deny the natural father of any... of his rights unless there is some compelling reason to do so. And among those compelling reasons would be if the natural father, for example, has not paid... made support payments and has not made an effort to see his or her child in a decade. In that situation, the Court may, if the step... the new step-father has maintained a relationship with that child, they... a Court may feel that it is in the best interest of the child, looking at the fact that that child has had no relationship with his or her natural siblings because of a broken custody situation, has good relations with their step-siblings, has good relations with the step-parents and no relation... no relationship with the former parents, the Court, in that situation, would be... you know, might find to grant a name change. Right now, however, a Court can grant a name change without looking at any of that. And a different Judge in one district or one circuit or another can make up their own criteria because there is no statutory guidelines. Here we are specifying clear statutory guidelines of what the Court must consider."

"House Bill 204, a Bill for an Act in relationship to the interest rates charged or computed on real estate loans in this state. Third Reading of the Bill."
"Representative Cullerton."
"Thank you, Madam Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. This Bill is a Bill which we passed last year which was stalled in the Senate Rules Committee. The Bill came from a personal experience. It was brought to my attention by an attorney who was doing a closing, a real estate closing, and the property was being sold by the seller at a loss. It was a situation where the seller had to... had... was forced to sell and so he was... since he was losing money at the closing, which is not always... which is somewhat of a rarity. He was very careful to look at all the charges that he had that were attributable to the seller. And he... turned out that when he signed the mortgage, that he had contracted to allow for the bank to charge him interest for the full month of the date that he retired the debt. So, in other words, even though he paid off the debt on December 3rd, he was charged interest for the rest of the month, even after he was not even borrowing any money, he was still paying interest. This Bill is in response to that situation. It amends the Savings and Loan Act and the Credit Union Act. The Banking Act has already been amended to prohibit this. It basically says that you just can't charge interest on money that isn't loaned. It makes it clear, through an Amendment recommended by Representative McCracken, that it's limited to residential real estate and with regard to the effective date, if there already is a contract in existence that allows for this practice, then we don't change that, but any new contracts 75 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 that will go into effect after this date or any contracts that are silent on the issue would be affected by the prohibition. I would be happy to answer any questions. I believe it's a good consumer Bill."
"The Gentleman has moved for... The Gentleman has moved for the passage of House Bill 204, and on that question, the Gentleman from DuPage, Representative
McCracken. McCracken: "Thank you, Madam Speaker. Will the Gentleman yield?"
"He will yield for a question."
"Just to clarify, Representative Cullerton, banks are not covered by this Bill because they are prohibited under the Banking Act?"
"Right, the Banking Act already has a provision which says that, you know, these charges cannot be made."
"And that prohibition, under the Banking Act, is that also limited to residential? Do you happen to know off hand or..."
"Yes, yes, it is. I believe it is."
"Alright, so we patterned this after the Banking Act?"
"That's correct."
"Now, the S & L's have a federal prohibition against this already? Is this consistent with the federal prohibition?"
"That's... That's what my understanding is as well."
"Alright. This is... This is no broader than the federal prohibition or is it broader, do you know?"
"Well, the federal prohibition, I believe, is simply on the issue of charging interest after the loan has been paid off and this corresponds to that."
"And the... You know, this contract issue again, about, you know, the silent contract? I guess it's too late to do anything about it, but wouldn't the ex post 76 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 facto laws or impairment of contract effect those as well if, in fact, a person were relying on the contract for the... for the late payment penalty?"
"Well, if the contract is silent on the issue and you get to a closing and the bank wants to charge you for interest on money that isn't... hasn't been lent, I would think that they... that they couldn't do it. Okay?"
"Right. I agree."
"So the real effect of the Bill is to prohibit these clauses being included in future contracts."
"Okay, alright. And what about contracts still to come due? How will the effective date apply? How will that work?"
"Well, if the contract has a provision in it, we don't change the provisions of that contract. And as far as the effective date of this Bill, it's January 1st, 1986."
"But all contracts written prior to that time, regardless of when the enforcement is made, will not be affected."
"That's right. That's right. So, in other words, contracts written with those provisions in it between now and January 1st could be... that charge could be enforced."
"Could be enforced. Okay, just for purposes of intent. Thank you."
"There being... Representative Churchill."
"Thank you, Madam Speaker. Will the Sponsor yield for some questions?"
"He will yield for a question."
"Representative Cullerton, has there been any estimate done on how much or how many different types of loans we are talking about that would be covered by your Bill?"
"Well, it would cover all residential real estate 77 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 3, 1985 loans. Now, as to how many of these loans have such provisions in it that allows for the collection of this interest, I don't know. Most residential real estate loans, of course, are through savings and loans and I really don't know how many contract provisions have it. Normally, as a practical matter, the seller doesn't even realize that he's being charged the money because the seller usually makes money at the time of a closing and, you know, there is always charges that go along with the closing, but he gets a big check and he's usually happy. So, this would... you know, would cover those situations where he's being charged this interest when he shouldn't be."
"Well, I guess... I guess what I'm trying to dig into is do we have a major problem in the industry or not? I mean I have done a lot of real estate closings, a lot of mortgage payoffs and I don't think anybody has ever come out and set forth whether there is a problem or not a problem... most of the the institutions I deal with..."
"No, no, I don't... It's not... It's not going to have a major effect on the amount of money that banks make. It's just the principle of the thing, pardon the... pardon the pun. It's just the principle of the thing. I don't mind school. It's just the principal of the thing, right? It's the principle of charging interest on money that's not loaned that is offensive to me and that's why I put the Bill in and this just says you can't contract to do that."
"Okay, so... But it is a prohibition on the right of the two parties to make that contract?"
"Oh, right, because, you know, when you sign a mortgage, most of the mortgage people... most of the purchasers don't... you know, are at a competitive disadvantage to negotiate over provisions that are included 78 36th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE in the mortgage contract."
"Okay, thank you."
May 8, 1985 "The Gentleman from Cook, Representative
"Thank you, Madam Speaker. please?" Piel." Would the Gentleman yield,
"He will yield for a question."
"John, I'm sorry. I was talking to somebody a second ago when the question was probably asked. Can you explain what... Alright, now, there's one Amendment, correct? Or two? To the Bill right now."
"I'm sorry, what was the question? We offered Amendment #2 and... and 1."
"Alright, so there's two Amendments to the Bill."
"Right."
"Alright, what did the Amendments take out as far as, you know, who this covers?"
"Amendment #1 made it clear it applied to savings and loans and credit unions because we discovered that the Banking Act already had such a prohibition. Amendment #2 made it clear that it was limited to residential real estate and we also dealt with this issue of what it would... of the effective date and which contracts it would affect and which it wouldn't."
"Okay, so then now, with those who would be covered under this if it excluded savings and loans and credit unions?"
"Covers savings and loan, it covers credit unions and it covers banks. The law doesn't cover... The Bill doesn't cover banks. The law already covers banks. This applies to credit unions and savings and loans. It didn't exclude them. It included them. It excluded... The first Amendment excluded banks because they already have it in another Bill."
"Okay, but in reference to the... the Bill now, what you 73 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 will have technically is conflicting legislation, correct? With the Amendment?"
"Pardon me? No, the Amendment... Amendment #1 took out banks because they are covered on another Bill. They are covered in existing 36th Legislative Day
"Right." STATE OF ILLINOIS 34th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 8, 1985
"So, in other words, if I own an apartment... I get a mortgage on an apartment building it doesn't apply to me if I don't live in that building?"
"Unless... Unless residential real estate is defined elsewhere in the Code to include that, I would say that it would not apply."
"Okay, so in other words, this would not... This would not apply then to the situation of an investment. I do this as an investment and buy a three-flat. It's residential, as far as you renting it from me, you are living there, but as far as if I am not living there, it's not my residence?"
"Okay, well, like I say, unless... All Amendment #2 says is residential real estate. If it is defined somewhere else in the Code, I don't know whether it is or not. If it's not, then we are talking about who it would apply to."
"John, I don't mean to be an obstructionist, but what I'm talking about, you know, you said residential and then you said but if I don't live there and so I'm trying to clarify this for the... for the record."
"Right, it's defined... My intention is to have it include... for residential to mean people who live in the home."
"Home or apartment building. In other words, if I were to own a three-flat and live in one of the units?"
"Right."
"Thank you very much. No further questions."
"The Gentleman from Jersey, Representative Ryder."
"Thank you, Madam Speaker. Would the Sponsor yield for a question?"
"He will yield for a question." 81 36th Legislative Day Ryder: STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE "Representative..." May 8, 1985
"Unless I have already answered it, I won't."
"My guess is you probably have. That's why I am confused. I have some... I have some concerns that there is... Did both of your Amendments pass?"
"Yes."
"And Amendment #1 speaks to a separate issue which concerning pre-payment penalty?"
"It allows for late payment penalties. They can still be charged. This Amendment was to clarify that late payment penalties could still be charged. This is really a simple Bill. It's not a difficult concept."
"It probably was. It probably was. The problem that I don't understand..."
"What's the problem?"
"The problem that I don't understand is we are speaking of interest that was part of the contract originally, it was calculated into part of the contract and you are indicating that in some circumstances when it is paid off early that the interest is still charged either for the end of the month or the end of the day or whatever. Is that correct?"
"The end of the month. They were charging interest for the rest of the month when the money had already been paid off."
"And that was part of the contract originally?"
"Yes, and what we are saying with this Bill is they can't make those contracts anymore because it's not fair to charge interest on money that's not loaned."
"Except that that was part of the contract in the beginning, correct?"
"If you sign the contract in the beginning to pay interest on money that wasn't loaned, this Bill doesn't effect those existing contracts, but it says you can't make 82 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 such contracts in the future. You can charge more points, you can charge pre-payment penalties, you can charge late payment penalties, but you can't charge interest on money that's not being lent. It's as simple as that. It really is."
"Then to the Bill, if I may."
"Proceed quickly."
"I'll do my very best. Thank you. One of the... To the Bill. I have problems with it. I had problems with it in Committee. I still have problems with it now because of the explanations that's given. I understand that the proponent, the Sponsor of the Bill, is responding to a constituent request and it may very well be that it is a simple concept, but it seems to me that when two people, or in this case, a person and an institution, are dealing in a contract for dollars and... obligations are made that would require that money to be available, that the institutions are relying on that, whether it's for a day, a week, a month or whatever, then in that circumstance, I believe that the contract should continue. That's the reason that I have problems with it. There are some other issues that are addressed in the Amendments which I have further concerns about. I appreciate the fact that the explanation indicates that it's a simple issue. Sometimes, I suppose, those are the ones that cause us the greatest concern and I appreciate the explanations given."
"The Gentleman from Madison, Representative Wolf."
"Madam Speaker, I move the previous question."
"Representative Wolf has moved the previous question. The question is, 'Shall the previous question be put?' All those in favor say 'aye', all those opposed say 'nay'. In the opinion of the Chair, the 'ayes' have it and 83 36th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 8, 1985 the previous question is put. Representative Cullerton, to close. Representative Cullerton waives his close. The question is, 'Shall House Bill 204 pass?' All those in favor vote 'aye', all those opposed vote 'no'. Voting is open. Representative Friedrich is recognized to explain his vote."
"Madam Speaker and Members of the House, I am amazed that the Sponsor would come up with this Bill when he doesn't preclude points, the most vicious thing, if there is... if you could call it that, is points when the loan is closed because they can be as many as five or six points. You can pay the loan off the next day and you are still stuck with the points. I don't know why he didn't address that if he's concerned about confining everything to simple interest. But the prepayment penalty is part of the contract. Under the existing law the buyer or borrower has to be advised of that at the time of the closing. He goes into it with his eyes open. But I don't understand why he doesn't preclude points if he wants to limit it to simple interest."
"Have all voted who wish? The Clerk will take the record. On this question, there are 91 voting 'aye', 16 voting 'no' and 4 voting 'present'. This Bill, having received the Constitutional Majority, is hereby declared passed. Representative Giorgi is recognized for the purposes of a Motion."
"Madam Speaker, I would like to move that... to advance Senate Bill 339 to Second Reading without reference to a Committee. This Bill has to do with a supplemental appropriation to DCCA. It's been cleared with the both sides of the aisle, with the Chairman of the Appropriations Committee, Spokesman of the Appropriations Committee and I'd like unanimous consent of the House to put it on Second 84 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 8, 1985 36th Legislative Day Reading."
"The Gentleman has moved that Senate Bill 339 bypass Committee and be placed on the Calendar on the Order of Second Reading First Legislative Day... Second Reading, Second Legislative Day. And on that question, is there any discussion? Hearing no discussion, the question is, 'Shall the Gentleman's Motion..."
"Unanimous consent. I need unanimous consent, Madam Speaker. I don't have a Roll Call."
"Hearing no objection, the Gentleman has unanimous consent to bypass Committee on Senate Bill 339. Mr. Clerk, would you read the Bill, please?"
"Senate Bill 339, a Bill for an Act making appropriations to the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs. Second Reading of the Bill. No Committee Amendments."
"Agreed Resolutions."
"House Resolution 351, Slater. 352, Churchill. 353, McAuliffe Capparelli. 354, Daniels Republican Leadership. And 355, Cullerton et al."
"Representative Giorgi, on the Agreed Resolutions."
"Madam Speaker, House Bill 351, by Slater, congratulates Maxine Smith. 352, by Churchill, commends Pam Hall. 353, by McAuliffe, honors Daniel Cole's retirement. 354, by Daniels et al, wishes the Governor a happy birthday and prepares a brochure for his reelection. And Cullerton's 355 honors Barb 'Singlan'. I move for the adoption of the Agreed Resolutions."
"The Gentleman has moved for the adoption of the Agreed Resolutions. All those in favor say 'aye', all those opposed say 'nay'. In the opinion of the Chair, the 'ayes' have it and the Agreed Resolutions are adopted. 85 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 36th Legislative Day May 8, 1985 Representative Leverenz, for what reason do you rise?"
"For purpose of an announcement. The Appropriations Committee tomorrow morning. Appropriations I will meet at the hour of 9:00 rather than 8:00 a. m. 9:00."
"Okay. Appropriations... that announcement is Appropriations will meet tomorrow at 9:00 rather than 8:00 a. m. Representative Giorgi."
"Take a Roll Call on the Resolutions, Madam Chairman. You know, pass the Resolutions."
"I can't hear what you said, Representative."
"Pass the Resolutions. Put the question. Put the question to the Agreed Resolutions."
"Okay, the question... the question is... Representative Giorgi has moved the adoption of the Agreed Resolutions. All those in favor say 'aye', all those opposed say 'nay'. In the opinion of the Chair, the 'ayes' have it. Oh, he just wanted to say 'no'. Okay, because we already did that, Representative Giorgi. You can't change your vote afterwards. Are there any other announcements? Representative Davis."
"Well, Madam Speaker, on a point of personal privilege and pride, when Representative Gene Schlickman was sitting on this side of the aisle, he used to report daily during the Cubs season on the score of the Cubs game as they were in progress. I would just like to make a note with pride that the New Lennox Yankees, Little League minor team last night unfortunately lost a 2 to 1 game, but a future Rick Sutcliffe pitched his first little league game and pitched a one hit loss, unfortunately, but struck out seven. And all the scouts, if you've got them, please send them up and see this kid named Jack Davis pitch. He's great."

"A question of the Chair. Could you tell me what 1488 because I thought it was objected to and that objection was released. I might be wrong."
