"Point of information, Mr. Speaker. We have been asking that these Subcommittees not be used as a dumping ground for legislation. Yesterday in the Insurance Committee at the appointed time there were seven Republicans present and two Democrats present. The meeting was called to order and a Motion was made by the Republican Spokesman to not send any Bills to Subcommittee, but have them considered by the full Committee. At that point, the Chairman of the Committee recessed the Committee for 50 minutes in order that enough Democrats could become... come to this meeting and at the point when they arrived, the Lady's Motion was not considered, but instead a Motion was made to send all the Bills to the Subcommittees. Now, not only are Republicans missing votes as a result of this Subcommittee and Committee procedure, but apparently Democrats can't make these meetings either and evidence of it is what happened yesterday in the Insurance Committee. Not only did we have an abuse of the Chair by recessing for 50 minutes and then not considering the Motion, but we also had Democrats who didn't even show up for the Committee meeting, 50 minutes late, apparently because they had to go to other places. because of this Subcommittee system. I 2 STATE OF ILLINOIS 85th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 35th Legislative Day April 23, 1987 contend that it isn't hurting just us. It's hurting you as well.

Let's give them our attention, our total attention."
"Mr. Clerk, would you start over, please?"
"Whereas the Members of this Body are pleased and honored to recognize outstanding young citizens throughout 6 STATE OF ILLINOIS 85th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 35th Legislative Day April 23, 1987 this state who set an example for their peers; and whereas it has come to the attention that the Dominant Boys, a rap group from Alton, comprised of seven boys ranging from ages 11 to 16, are using their talents to discourage others from using drugs; and whereas the Dominant Boys consist of Brent Robinson, Curtis Faulkner, Cory Faulkner, Chad Alexander, John Brunfield, Alonzo Edwards and Monty Gibson; and whereas through their own experiences, the Dominant Boys have seen the destructiveness of drugs and they have the courage to speak out against drug abuse; and whereas the Dominant Boys have combined their talents with a message to encourage others not to use drugs by rapping and their message they are able to relate to many people and thus be more effective; whereas Verdene Robinson, the mother of two of the Dominant Boys, has encouraged her sons, as well as others, to be examples for their peers and she has remained a positive force in their actions; therefore, be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the 85th General Assembly of the State of Illinois that we congratulate and commend the Dominant Boys for their outstanding efforts to discourage the use of drugs and that we extend our best wishes to them for continued success in their future endeavors; and be it further resolved that suitable copies of this Preamble and Resolution be presented to the Dominant Boys as a formal indication of our respect and esteem in which they are held by this Body."

"Ms. Wojcik, the Lady from Cook."
"Yes, Mr... Yes, Mr. Speaker and Members of the House, what this Bill allows is an additional group of people to participate in casino legislation, which would be veterans 8 STATE OF ILLINOIS 85th GENERAL AS SEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 35th Legislative Day April 23, 1987 and fraternal organizations, which would include Jaycees, Moose, Elks, Kiwanis, Lions and those that would come under the special license of a 501-C4. I move its favorable passage."
"The Lady From Cook, Ms. Wojcik, moves for the passage of House Bill 177, and on that, the Gentleman from Cook, Mr. Giglio."
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. I think the House ought to realize what's going on here with this Bill. Now, last year we passed the Charitable Game Act and we had a number of hearings throughout the state. We had a number of people testify and we came up which I thought and a lot of other people thought was a reasonable solution to put forth Las Vegas nights for those people who hold the 501-C3 license which came from the Federal Government. Now, we were going to use this and try this for two years and after two years, it would die and if we wanted to resurrect it, we could do something else. We were only going to allow those people who had that charitable license, where all the monies derived go to charitable organizations and schools. What we are doing with this Bill is to open it up for fraternal organizations, unions, et cetera, to have Las Vegas nights. Now, we had a lot of trouble with the bingo. Bingo had become palaces, as you know, and we were very strict with that Bill that we passed two years ago. even to put in there that we would only have these Las Vegas nights four times at one place. So, those of you who may not know the contents in this Bill, be careful because you are going to open up this Las Vegas nights to a lot more organizations. which a lot of people thought that they wanted to do only for two years with the previous Bill that we passed two years ago." 9 STATE OF ILLINOIS 85th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 35th Legislative Day
April 23, 1987 "Further discussion? There being none, Ms. Wojcik, to close."
"Yes, Mr. Speaker. I have heard the Gentleman on the other side of the aisle, and I would like to point out that I, too, was able to sit in for all the discussions pertinent to casino legislation. At the time that we were discussing casino legislation, it was very obvious that the original intent of the first casino Bill was for the fraternals and as we discussed what was going to happen and how it was going to happen, fraternals was eliminated. There was an agreement that at some future time, i. e.. right now, we could then come in with an attempt to have the fraternals represented. We have big problem with casino nights because the majority of the people I represent and most of the people in this House represent are the ones who use casino nights. In my area, it is not the Catholic churches who have casino night. It is the Lions, it's the Jaycees, it's the Kiwanis. They are a worthy fraternal group of people. They have done a justifiable job for many, many years in having casino nights. We are talking about four times a year. We are not talking about a parlor. We are not talking about horrendous gambling. We are talking about charitable evenings four times a year, Ladies and Gentlemen. And I'd have to point out to you that most of us in the collar counties and downstate are not even able to use the original casino legislation. Therefore, I say that this is going to be for the veterans, it is going to be for the fraternal organizations and it will be for worthy causes. possibly four times a year. There was a casino night held in my area and it was very professionally done. But I have to tell you that after they did it once and all the scrutiny they had to go through it was their determination 10 STATE OF ILLINOIS 85th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 35th Legislative Day April 23, 1987 that once a year is sufficient. So, I question whether we'll be looking at more than one or two times in the collar areas. You might be looking at four times a year within the City, but I would tell you that from what I experienced probably once would be enough annually. So, I do ask for its favorable passage. It's a good Bill. It's a Bill for the little people and I think we should pass it.
Thank you. Speaker Breslin: "Is there any further discussion? Representative Greiman. The Lady, I believe has closed. Representative Deuchler, for what reason do you rise? Representative Wojcik has closed. You can explain your vote and perhaps ask your question at that time, okay? The question is, 'Shall House Bill 177 pass?' All those in favor vote'aye', all those opposed vote 'no'. Voting is open. Representative Greiman, one minute to explain his vote."
"Thank you. I'm going to vote 'no' on this Bill and I think all of you should think very carefully before your hand goes to that. One of the main concerns we had in drafting this agreement two years ago was al not to have a proliferation of gambling throughout the state, and b) to make sure that organized crime does not find a new entry level in our society. This Bill... and I might tell you that before we did this, there were 38 companies in the phone book, when gambling was illegal, that sold and rented gambling equipment. We have a few hundred that are licensed now. We will, under this Bill and the three... two Bills thereafter have thousands of them licensed. The idea was to keep organized crime at a distance to make sure we could monitor it. When you pass this Bill, when you write 'yes', you await the next scandal in this community in gambling. You invite it almost because you have now 11 35th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 85th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE April 23, 1987 made it unmanageable, unregulatable kind of arrangement. And you make a mistake and you will be explaining this vote in the next few years. Mark my words. Thank you. I vote "no"."
"The Lady from Kane, Representative Deuchler, one minute to explain your vote."
"Well, I had wanted to ask a question, but just to explain my vote, we had run into a problem with the American Association of University Women who holds one casino night a year, had a 501-C4, did not have a 501-C3 and thus was precluded holding their one fund raiser for women's scholarships. So it really meets a need for the fraternal organizations."
"Representative Cullerton, one minute to explain your vote."
"Yes, I just wanted to indicate that I'm voting 'present' on the Bill. It's not that, obviously, we want to not support the veterans in their efforts. It's just that, as Representative Greiman had stated, we did have long and lengthy negotiations with regard to this Bill, which we only passed, I think, just last year. And it was... the decision was made at that time not to include the veterans organizations and I want to also say that this is not a partisan issue. I feel the same way on any other Bills that have Democratic Sponsors. It's just a matter of whether you decide... whether you think this should be opened up. I do think that the... I'm not sure if they testified in Committee... I do think that some of the religious organizations who were included in the Act would probably not be in favor of this Bill because it would expand them... expand their competition, if you will. And so, I think that's also something that should be taken into account." 12 35th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 85th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE April 23, 1987

The definition does not hinge on an organization's tax exempt status and would allow these veterans' organizations to benefit by the use of these games or nights in order to raise revenue. I'd ask for its passage."

"Well, once again. Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House, I just want to say with all these Bills and what we are doing, we are going contrary to what we started out when we passed the Las Vegas Bill, that all this money was strictly to go to charities. What happened... what is going to happen now is this money that's derived, all of it is not going to go to charities. They are going to go to the housing committees. They are going to go any way, shape or form that they want to spend that money and that was the whole crux of the Bill that we passed two years ago. So, be that as it may, vote your conscience."
