"Representative Saltsman."

"Yes thank you, Mr. Speaker. This is a Bill that passed the House by an overwhelming majority last year and it got stalled in the Senate and what it does it amends the 23  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 prevailing Wage Act to let our contractors here in the State of Illinois have a fair standard of their bidding procedure in setting wage standards for jobs that they will be putting bids on. And I'd ask for its passage."

"The Gentleman has moved for passage of House Bill 209 and on that, is there any discussion? The Gentleman from Dupage, Representative McCracken."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise in opposition to this Bill. This Bill would expand from what are truly public projects and the requirements of the prevailing wage laws to private projects in affect guaranteed by municipalities or other local units of government. Currently, these bond provisions or these types of bonds which are available under state law are privately developed projects, privately financed projects. The bonds are sold because they are guaranteed by the municipalities. But the municipalities are not spending money on the project. It, in fact, is a private development project. Now, to the extent that the municipalities want to guarantee these projects or find them desirable that is no reason to impose on these projects the cost, the very substantially increased costs in these construction projects. The public policy is not fairly met. Where public projects are used, where taxpayer money is used the prevailing wage law applies. This is not taxpayers dollars that are funding these projects. This is private money funding these projects. There is no legitimate public policy reason for imposing the prevailing wage law on private projects. This is a very substantially important Bill, could be a very costly Bill to the construction industry in this state. There is no showing made that people out there are not making enough money based on a failure to comply with the prevailing wage law. It's a fallacy and to require these costs of construction 24  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 to be passed on to private projects amounts to a tax. A tax only on a selected industry of our state, the construction industry. A construction industry which is not acting under public finance, under private finance. It is an absolutely awful Bill. It is unfair to saddle one particular industry with these public costs. I stand in opposition to the Bill and hope that my friends will do likewise."

"The Gentleman from Cook, Representative Didrickson...the Lady from Cook, excuse me."

"Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Would the Sponsor respond to a question or two please?"

"He indicates he'll yield."

"Representative Saltsman, Representative McCracken just talked about the expansion of the prevailing wage in the State of Illinois and as how he sees the damaging effects. But I'd really like to key in on the Build Illinois portion and ask you why, specifically, you've included Build Illinois projects with regards to the prevailing wage when we explicitly left this out when we put together the Build Illinois program?"

"The reason, this time, that we included the Build Illinois bonds and money coming from that..."

"I'm sorry I can't hear you."

"The reason that we have put this into the Bill this year is because we have funds throughout the State of Illinois that are being used and out of state contractors are coming here and under bidding our contractors because they're paying a lower salary. This Bill protects the contractors in the State of Illinois more than it does the labor union. When this whole program started out, this was a Bill set up for the Contractors Association, it was not a labor Bill. And it still does more good for our 25  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 contractors than it does for the blue collar worker. It gives him the chance to make that person pay the same salary at the wage scale list for that area. And when a person can come into your area and pay a sub-standard wage, it takes the ability of that contractor who has signed labor relations programs with his local unions it takes his powers away from him to be able to bid and bid in competition with these out of state and right to work contractors coming into our area."

"Will this not take away the contractors ability to negotiate these contracts?"

"A contractor has to negotiate his contract with the developer based on the wage scales he's paying his employees and when he is forced to pay his employees that type of a wage scale it's unfair to bring people in here to be able a bid against him and to be able to pay a lower scale. And this...bonds are put up and it is government money that's invested. The government pays those bonds back."

"But you did use the term 'forced'."

"Pardon."

"You did use the term 'forced', that contractor then is forced to pay those prevailing wages?"

"Yes."

"He can't...alright well that's not negotiations..."

"In most areas the large suburban areas..."

"No excuse...Representative Saltsman, then we take it out of the realm of negotiation when you use the terminology 'forced' and in specific when you require prevailing wage to be used. Would that not be correct?"

"I didn't hear you."

"My question to you is you're taking it out of negotiations when you use prevailing wage on these Build 26  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 Illinois projects and that's including the contractors even though there's a differential with regards to the wages that you're talking about. You said 'no' but you used the term 'forced' and when you use the term 'forced' you're taking it out of negotiations and you're going to require these to be expansion of Build Illinois projects and the cost and you're not going to be able to utilize the dollars, the Build Illinois dollars to the same extent that we've been able to, isn't that correct?"

"If you want...it would be correct if you want somebody to be able to bid against our contractors in the state who have wage scales set by their counties and by the negotiations at the bargaining table. If you want somebody to be able to come in and under cut them then that's your business. This is what I'm trying to stop. I'm trying to stop people from coming in and paying an unfair wage with unexperienced people. We had a program that happened in my area where they got 9 million dollars worth of bonds and brought in people from Kansas and paid half the pay scale of the area and our contractors and the bonds that were put up by our city, the men and women working and living there were throwed out in the middle of the street and the out-of-town people got the jobs."

"Okay... Representative Saltsman... Representative Saltsman I would like to key in on your particular area there in Peoria where economic development projects and Build Illinois projects are key. You mentioned that 9 million dollars was spent there, how many jobs did that create?"

"Fifty or sixty part-time...they shut the place down when the price of corn goes up."

"Fifty or sixty jobs, now if you're going to use prevailing wage there, same number of dollars, same number 27  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 of 9 million dollars that you're going to be able to expend, and now you put in the new component of prevailing wage, are you not going to shrink the number of jobs? Yes or no?"

"You're not going to increase the number of construction jobs, no."

"Well to the Bill, Mr. Speaker. To the Bill please. This is an expansion of the prevailing wage and I would just certainly like to alert Members on my side of the aisle and those on the other side of the aisle who are very protective over those economic development dollars for your particular region. It's an expansion of the prevailing wage. It's going to cost money and you're going to receive less in terms of projects. This is a good Bill to defeat."

"The Gentleman from Fulton, Representative Homer."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Ladies and Gentlemen, I rise to support the Gentlemans Bill and to say to you that this is not a new concept. This Bill has been here before. It's passed out of the House on a number of occasions in previous years to be stalled in the Senate. There are few votes that you can make that are both pro-management, and pro-labor. This is one of those votes. The Sponsor has accurately indicated that both the contractor groups and the labor groups working in the construction area support this idea and it's nothing but a logical extension of the prevailing wage law that this General Assembly adopted several years ago. And, at that time, there was a clear public policy stated in this state that the general prevailing hourly rate should be paid on public works projects. These are public works projects. These are projects that would not be completed unless some public entity be the state, county or municipality authorize the issuance of tax free municipal bonds so as to enable the 28  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 developer to save the taxes that otherwise would have been paid. Since that developer takes advantage of the public purpose served by the issuance of these bonds, isn't it then logical that we extend the public policy of the prevailing Wage Act to these projects just as we do to projects that are directly paid for with public funds? The public policy is the same. The winners are the workers in Illinois, the contractors in the locale that don't have to deal as Representative Saltsman said, 'from out of state intruders into that region.' People work, they make a fair living for what their work is and I think it's a vote that all of us should be proud to cast and I will vote 'yes'."

"The Gentleman from Adams, Representative Mays."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Ladies and Gentlemen of the House, as the previous Representative did mention this is not a new idea, but it was a bad idea when it passed out of here before. It was a bad idea when we beat it before and it's a bad idea now. Department of Commerce and Community Affairs in previous years and I don't know about this particular one, did indicate to us that whatever advantage the employer might have by participating in these bonds issued by the government at a lower interest rate that advantage would be wiped out completely by this kind of a requirement and indeed one of the good programs that we have for economic development in this state would again go by the wayside because of the baggage we added to it. I would urge a 'no' vote."

"The Gentleman from Peoria, Representative Saltsman to close."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Anyone who votes against this Bill, consider themselves a person who's in favor of right to work. We voted right to work down here six...five or six years ago. We voted right to work down in this General 29  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 Assembly. We didn't want it and if you want to bring these right to work people into this state to get the jobs of our people who are paying the bills, our people who are paying the taxes and using their properties...their properties to serve to issue these bonds then vote against this Bill, but if you want to vote for your construction workers, for your contractors that want nothing more than a fair challenge to go out and bid their programs then you will vote for this Bill. Again, I urge your support for this piece of legislation."

"The Gentleman has moved for the adoption of House Bill 209 and the question is, 'Shall House Bill 209 pass?' All those in favor vote 'aye', all those opposed vote 'no'. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Representative McCracken...have all voted who wish? Mr. Clerk, take the record. On this there are 71 'ayes', 43 'nos'. This Bill having received the...does the Gentleman request his verification?"

"I don't believe there's 71 over there, but there may be more than 60, so I'll withdraw it."

"Representative Jones."

"Mr. Speaker...Mr. Speaker, are you voting on this Bill? Mr. Speaker, are you voting on this Bill?"

"Yeah. Mr. Clerk, would you record me as 'aye' please. On this Bill, there are 72 voting 'yes', 43 voting 'no'. This Bill having received the required Constitutional Majority, is hereby declared passed. House Bill 219, out of the record. Representative Flinn for what purpose do you rise?"

"Well, Mr. Speaker, I'm not one who normally violates the rules and I abhor those who do violate the rules, but upon this opportunity I would like to introduce a group from the community bankers sitting in the Speakers gallery, 50 some 30  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day odd people. And so I'm introducing May 9, 1989 them and I'll never violate the rules again, I promise you. Would you please stand up folks?"

"House Bill 219, out of the record. House Bill 268, Representative Giorgi. Mr. Clerk, read the Bill."

"House Bill 268, a Bill for an Act to amend Sections of an Act in relation to prisoners in jails. Third Reading of the Bill."

"Representative Giorgi."

"Mr. Speaker, this Bill amends an Act in relation to prisoners in jails by making the arresting authority responsible for any incurred medical expenses relating to the arrestee until he is placed in the custody of the sheriff, unless the arrest was made at the sheriffs request. We're getting park districts, police departments and airport districts and forest preserve districts, sanitary districts and they're bringing these injured people to jails and the counties picking up the tab. This Bill will make them responsible for their medical costs until the sheriffs accepts them. The second part of this Bill is that it, allows sheriffs to appoint auxiliary deputies to provide non-law enforcement assistance to non-profit organizations which benefit law enforcement activities and also authorizes the sheriffs to supplement police...sheriff police with auxiliaries and seasonal bases to carry out law enforcement activity. I know of no objection to this Bill and it's requested by the Illinois Sheriffs Association. I urge your support."

"The Gentleman has moved for the passage of House Bill 268 and on that question, is there any discussion? The Gentleman from Winnebago, Representative Mulcahey."

"Will the Sponsor yield for a question?"

"He indicates he will yield." 31  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day

"Representative Giorgi, when you're talking May 9, 1989 about the arresting party give me an example of what that could be in Winnebago County."

"Arresting party in Winnebago County and even in Stephenson County would be like an Airport Police Department or a Park District Police Department or a Forest Preserve District Department or a Sanitary District and all these little entities of government that have police departments that pick up someone that's injured and they drop them off at the sheriffs office rather than at the hospital where they should be treated for the injury SO they can pick up the tab."

"How about the local police department of a small municipality like the Village of Winnebago?"

"Well it's...if the person is injured, it's his duty to take him to the nearest medical facility anyway so that'll take care of a small entity of government."

"Well it seems to me that...who's picking up the tab right now on these people that are coming in?"

"Well, the Park Districts have their own budget. The airport has their own budget. The Sanitary District has their own budget and the county has their own budget but why should the county pay for all of these little units of governments medical bills?"

"Alright, a unit of government I'm talking about, if a local municipality like Pecatonica, the police officer should arrest somebody or should be involved in a case like this, the local municipality will pick up the tab on that right?"

"Until they're placed...until they're placed in the custody of this jail."

"Right, okay, but who is paying the county tax anyway? It seems like the people in Winnebago County, who happen to 32  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 live in Pecatonica are still paying the county tax anyway. It seems to me that this is a rather...that it's rather unfair that this tab should be put back on the local...on the local unit of government for example the Pecatonica Police Department. They're paying that tax up front at the onset and I don't see why this is..."

"The Park Districts budget doesn't include any money to maintain the jail. The Sanitary Districts budget doesn't include any money to maintain the jail. The City of Roscoes budget doesn't include monies to maintain the jail."

"I understand that."

"...but the bank was barely breaking even."

"I understand that, I understand that. Okay, it's a matter of who's paying the taxes at the onset. Who's going to provide the funds for that county facility anyway and it's everybody who lives in that damn county SO what difference does it make?"

"The Gentleman from McHenry, Representative Klemm."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Just a question of the Sponsor if I may."

"He indicates he'll yield."

"I was wondering, Representative Giorgi, about preexisting conditions that may affect a prisoner who goes into a detention center overnight or something, has a diabetic condition or something that he's had before and the arresting officials knew nothing about it. Who would have to pick up those continuing expenses and could be very...very large in amount? How is it handled now and how would your Bill change that if anything?"

"In other words, if someone...if someone is ill?"

"Let's say you're arrested and you're brought into the 33  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day detention center or the facility..." May 9, 1989

"He was brought to the sheriff...if he was brought into the sheriff...in the jail, the sheriff immediately assumes their cost. What's happening here is that there's a..."

"Alright, SO now...so now, that person ends up having a diabetic coma or something that has nothing to do with falling over a bunk or something, but had a preexisting medical history that the sheriff didn't know about, who is responsible under existing law to handle that and how would your Bill change it if anything?"

"I... if he gets into the jail system, the county becomes responsible. But, if lets say a...park policeman picks a person up and he's battered up pretty bad in a fight or something or fighting with a police officer he takes him to the hospital and leaves him there and they put a guard on him, it's the Sheriff's Department job to receive the prisoner and the Sheriff's Department ends up with the bill. They'd rather see the bill...the liability paid by the people that wrote for it...signed for it. Now you're being...give me a specific example, you're a county official you know what I'm talking about. You're a former County Board member, you ought to be giving some very good examples."

"Well...I could probably give you all kinds of examples. I was wondering if that sheriff takes him to the hospital and that person ends up being there for months and months taking care of a condition that wasn't anything to do with being beaten up at a barroom brawl."

"The county maintains the jail. The county's tired of picking up every little government entities bills that they create at the local medical facilities. Let the little units of government pay their own bills. This is the argument, the county boards are strapped for money, don't 34  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 want to be paying anybody elses medical bills. It's very simple."

"Alright so...then your answer to me I guess is that it would be the municipality that's picking up the cost that they...were the arresting officer even though it's the sheriff's responsibility to transport him to a hospital. Is that...okay, thank you, I'm just trying to clear that up. Thank you."

"Roll Call."

"The Gentleman from Winnebago, Representative Hallock."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Members of the House. I rise in support of this legislation also the Joint Sponsor. This Bill is eminated from Winnebago County where our States Attorney has seen this problem over the years and suggested this legislation. This Bill really seeks equity. It's very clear and fair that the authority that makes the arrest should in fact pay for the expenses. Right now the current problem is the county has to assume all these burdens, it's not fair and the counties just can't afford it. This is a good Bill and I urge it to be adopted. Vote 'aye'."

"Further discussion? The Gentleman from Winnebago, Representative Giorgi to close."

"Mr. Speaker, I'd just ask for an 'aye' vote. This does apply to home rule counties. There's only one in the state and that's Cook."

"Representative Breslin."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen. This Bill would provide that whenever a patient who qualifies for the Federal Medicare Program is hospitalized, that patient shall be notified at least 24 hours prior to discharge that they are going to be notified. The reason for the Bill is in order to facilitate the orderly transition of the aged and disabled from hospitals to post-hospital care. I would be happy to answer any questions." 36  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989

"The Lady has moved for the passage of House Bill 302, and on that question is there any discussion? Hearing none, Representative Breslin...the Gentleman from Morgan, Representative Ryder."

"Would the Sponsor yield for some questions please?"

"She indicates she will yield."

"Representative, we talked about this a little bit in Committee and I'm wondering, have you made any changes on the Bill since Committee?"

"Yes. Yes I have."

"Would you be able to explain those changes for me please to see if they address the concerns that we had?"

"Yes. The first provision strikes the reference to a particular part of the Federal Medicare Program and instead refers only to the Federal Medicare Program. This was at the recommendation of the Hospital Association. As a matter of fact, all these were at the recommendation of the Hospital Association. The second provision would allow patients who wish to waive their rights for 24 hour discharge notice to do so, so that those people who want to get out of the hospital may do so without any incumberance by this law. And the last provision requires only that the discharge notice be in writing and strikes the information or the requirements that it be in large print and in simple language. All were made at the request of the Hospital Association."

"Representative, as a request, as a result of the many changes that you've made, is the Hospital Association now in agreement with the Bill?"

"They have never told me that they are. As a matter of fact, I haven't heard from them since."

"Would it surprise you to know that they continue to oppose the Bill?" 37  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989

"Nothing would surprise me in this place."

"Okay, thank you. To the Bill. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Illinois Hospital Association continues to oppose for several reasons. One of which is that the Bill is operating under the premise that hospitals discharge patients. That's not correct. Doctors discharge patients. Additionally, on many occasions we are talking about people who are anxious to remove themselves from the hospitals and would find a 24 hour delay to be unduly necessary. I understand that there may some provision for those who are knowing consumers in this situation to relieve themselves of the responsibility or the rights by waiving that. I'm not sure that that can be clearly expressed to those who are anxious to leave. Additionally, we're talking about some increased cost here in the event that a person is notified at 9:00 in the morning that they're able to leave, but because of this problem they are then required to stay for another 24 hours. That's another day in the hospital, another additional cost which could add up to additional cost on an already overburdened health care industry and health care cost. This increases costs to consumers. It places undue responsibilities on hospitals. The Bill is well intentioned. There is a necessity for some additional time to prevent those situations in which people are dumped from hospitals, and in that I believe the Sponsor is well intended. There are situations in which people do need adequate time in order to make arrangements for long term care because of the already overburdened long term care system, waiting times and waiting periods. For that, I believe the Sponsor is well intentioned. But the Bill as it now stands does not adequately address those, can cause additional cost to our health care system. And it's for those reasons, in addition to the opposition, by the 38  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 Illinois Hospital Association that I stand in opposition of the Bill. Not to say, however, that the Sponsor has not attempted to comply with some of those objections because indeed she has."

"Further discussion, the Gentleman from McHenry, Representative Klemm."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, I wonder if the Sponsor would yield for a question?"

"She indicates she will yield."

"Representative Breslin, this summer, my mother, an elderly woman, who was in the hospital and I was with her having lunch at the time and the doctor came by to check her over and after his examination determined that she could be released and discharged as soon as she finished her lunch. And of course, we were delighted, surprised, but delighted. If your Bill were law, would she be required to have stayed there 24 hours so the hospital could meet it's obligations to inform her that she would be released?"

"No, she would not be required to do so. She can waive her rights under this provision. This provision only applies to those people who are surprised and are displeased by the sudden notice and are unable to provide for their post-hospital care in such a short period of time."

"So, the patient is the one who determines whether they'll be released prior to 24 hours or if they don't like it and they want to stay longer they could say: 'no, give me 24 hours notice?'"

"No, the Bill operates so that the hospital would be required to give the 24 hour notice and should the patient not wish to have to remain for that period of time they can waive their rights. So the doctor would come and say, if 39  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 you want to go home today Mrs. Klemm, you may. Otherwise I'm going to sign release papers for you tomorrow."

"Alright, and after the doctor signs those release papers, let's say at the time because that doctor is releasing this woman now, right? Would the hospital, would we sit there and wait until the hospital went to the Administrative responsibility of filling out this form to give to the patient for them to waive their notice before you could leave?"

"Well the Bill provides that the hospital set up their own procedure, SO I'm sure every hospital would be different. You should know however, that it is common procedure to give a written notice and the post-hospital care plan prior to discharge. So that is commonly done."

"Alright, thank you, you've answered my question. Thank you very much."

"Further discussion? The Lady from LaSalle, to close."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Ladies and Gentlemen, this Bill responds to a very real problem. Hospitals are discharging patients sicker and quicker since 1983 when Medicare changed it's form of reimbursement to a prospective payment system. Without a careful system for discharging patients, readmissions are more frequent, families and patients are thrown into crisis situations and community services are unprepared to respond. That's the reason for instance, that the Easter Seals Society supports this Bill. It was the actual complaints of seniors and a survey conducted by the Champaign County Health Care Consumers with help from the East Central Illinois Area Agency on Aging that prompted this Bill. It has the support of the Illinois State Council of Senior Citizen Organizations and its 500 participating organizations. I 40  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 think it's a good Bill and I recommend it to you."

"Representative Klemm."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. House Bill 351, actually deletes only actually four words of the law, but I think it's an important four words. About two months ago prior to our really getting active down here, I went to a meeting with a number of community leaders about affordable housing, about sharing of homes to try to have the Senior Citizens finding affordable places to live in our county. And in those discussions, I found out that the current law actually would serve against our senior citizens and our college students because in determining the statute, I found that 43  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 if you lived in cohabit together that you would be committing adultery or fornication in Illinois. Now obviously we know and I think most of know what we're talking about for the purpose of adultery and fornication. But it didn't seem that a person, any person who cohabits would be committing adultery should be still in our statutes today. So, when I looked about the number of senior citizens that are sharing apartments and homes together, and I look to see how many college students share homes and apartments, and then I thought about even Lincoln Towers, across the street that have legislators that are sharing apartments together, that I didn't think we needed to have these people in the eyes of society being determined to be adulterers. So, this Bill would simply remove the words cohabit and leave the rest of the legislation intact. I'll answer any questions, but I'd like to move the adoption of House Bill 351."

"The Gentleman has moved for the adoption of House Bill 351. And on that question, is there any discussion. The Gentleman from Cook, Representative Cullerton."

"Yes, would the Sponsor yield?"

"He indicates he will yield."

"Representative Klemm, it's my understanding that you do not intend for this to change in the definition of the Criminal Code to have any effect on changing the grounds for dissolution of a marriage under the Dissolution of Marriage Act?"

"Well, I'm only tackling these two areas of adultery and fornication in this Bill."

"Alright, but by changing the definition of adultery in the criminal code you don't mean for that to have any affect on the Dissolution of Marriage Act, do you?"

"I don't think so." 44  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989

"No, I don't think so either. I think this is a Bill made for my District and I certainly support it."

I "The Gentleman moves for the adoption of Floor Amendment #333 to House Bill 365. And on that question, Representative McCracken."

"Thank you. Will the Sponsor yield?"

"He indicates he will yield."

"Representative, does this then prohibit transfers where the remaining property is made noncontiguous?"

"I couldn't hear you, Tom."

"Does this then prohibit the disconnection where the result would be to create a noncontiguous district?"

"Right, if it creates a noncontiguous district it would prohibit it yes."

"Alright, so regardless of intention or reasoning, if it is made noncontiguous, that in and of itself would prohibit it from being done under this Bill as amended?"

"Correct."

"Okay, thank you."

"Representative Novak to close."

"Thank you. House Bill 365 simply amends the Forest Preserve Act. It allows for townships to petition out by referendum and also makes the referendum districts or the districts that seek the petition out liable for any indebtedness that has happened in the past.

"I'm a little confused, and if you would bear with me for just a moment. Our analysis says that your Amendment would allow the disconnection even if it made for noncontiguous territory. Is that wrong?"

"Representative McCracken, Amendment 3, I work with the Governor's Office on this. It satisfies their concerns about this. If the disconnection would become noncontiguous, then it would be null and void. It wouldn't be allowed."

"Representative Giglio, in the Chair."

"Speaker, alright, thank you. I'm just trying to find where it amends. So you delete 15, 16 and 17."

"It deletes one sentence, part of a sentence."

"And you would put in disconnected. Yeah, that's right. The analysis is wrong. His Amendment would prohibit it where the disconnection makes for noncontiguous territory. Alright, thank you."

"Question is, 'Shall the Amendment be adopted'? All those in favor signify by saying 'aye', those opposed 'nay'. In the opinion of the Chair, the 'ayes' have it, the Amendment's adopted. Further Amendments?"

"Gentleman from Kankakee, Representative Novak."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 365 is similar to a Bill we passed on Consent Calendar out of here last year. It provides for territories to disconnect from Forest Preserve Districts in counties of population of 125,000 and below. It provides for that disconnection upon court approval and by a referendum. With the added Amendments, it deletes provisions that should a referendum be successful and the territory become noncontiguous the referendum or the Amendment would subscribe that to be null and void. This corrects a local problem at home, along the Kankakee River and I certainly would approve your or appreciate your support on this Bill."

"Any discussion? Hearing none, the question is, 'Shall House Bill 365 pass?' Excuse me, the Gentleman from Grundy, Representative Weller."

May 9, 1989

"House Bill 536, a Bill for an Act to amend the School Code. Third Reading of the Bill."

"Gentleman from St. Claire, Representative Monroe Flinn."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. House Bill 536 addresses a problem we have in my District and some of the adjoining Districts, but it really is a problem with the Regional Board of School Trustees in that we have a seven person board, elected for a 6 year term and we've got at least two of them who just get elected and don't attend the meetings. What we are asking for in the Bill, in the event we're faced with situations, anyone else and any other districts faced with situations we are there that the majority of the remaining board can replace them for the balance of the term. Now these are elected positions and we have a hard time getting candidates to start with and when we get candidates who really don't care about serving, just want to run to get their name on a ballot it creates a problem. So, I'd ask for a favorable vote and I'll try to answer any questions if there are any."

"The Lady from DuPage, Representative Cowlishaw."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. Although I realize the Representative who is Sponsoring this Bill is trying to respond to a problem in his own area. The Bill does apply statewide. I think we have always been very careful about any kind of provision that permits anyone who has been elected to a position be removed from it for any reason other than the selection and the choice of the voters. This Bill sets a precedent. Let us suppose that we have a Member of the General Assembly who for some reason, perhaps a valid reason, like 50  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 a serious illness, misses more than 50 percent of the Sessions, during a given term. Is that reason why that Representative should be removed from office? I hardly think so. This Bill sets that kind of a precedent and I feel rather uneasy about that kind of thing. The other thing that this Bill does that somewhat bothers me is that it says that the other Members of that Regional Board can remove one of the Members for willful failure to perform his or her duties. What is willful failure to perform his or her duties? Does that mean for example, if that person consistently fails to agree with the others on the issues that that person is willfully failing to perform his or her duties? Having been in the minority ever since I have been here, I am very sensitive to protecting minority opinions and seeing if those opinions are heard. I think that this Bill, although I respect the Sponsor and realize that he has a good reason within his own area for bringing this forward, I think it sets the wrong kind of precendent and therefore, I urge a no vote on House Bill 536."

"Gentleman from Winnebago, Representative Mulcahey."

"I understand what the Sponsor is trying to do and he probably has a good reason for doing it. But I think more importantly we have here is a principle, and that principle is that we do live under a Democratic form of government, Republican form of government and not withstanding the fact that this person maybe not to be doing his job, none the less, he was out there, he was elected there by the people, his constituents, the voters of his districts and it's just going contrary to our whole process by allowing a majority of the Members of a Board to remove him. If we had such a thing as a principle such as a recall in this state, it might be okay but we don't and this is I believe, going 51  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 9, 1989 37th Legislative Day just a little bit to far."

"Representative Flinn to close."

"Well Mr. Speaker, in answer to some of the people...the two people who spoke against it, I realize the principle of electing officials and taking them out of office, but the people we're talking about, that caused this Bill to be introduced, are people who refused to answer phone calls, who refused to answer regular mail, who refused to answer registered mail. These are not people who are sick. If someone is sick, that's an plausible excuse for not removing them. But these are people who have served as much as six years and shows up at monthly meetings of two or three out of the six years. Obviously these people don't really care about serving or they would show up at least once or twice a year. And all they got to do is show up occasionally or make some excuse for not showing up and most certainly the remaining board members would not remove them. It's not a matter of vendetta or anything else, it's simply a matter of trying to run the business. On one occasion, the two people we've had the problem with was neither there, another person was on vacation, and a third person was sick and they had to cancel the meeting and was unable to approve the sale of a school building and had to wait for two months until that decision could be made. I think that it's deplorable that we let people stay in office like that, and if we, as Legislators, could get by with that I suspect that there are some here that may, but I kind of doubt it."

"Mr. Speaker, what this Bill would offer to do to let the banks, financial institutions and credit unions go into nursing homes and that sort of thing to permit people to do their banking business on the premises rather than have to send someone else or catch a bus or something like that to go into the bank. It's limited to those sort of situations. I got this from the Lady of Snows which is in my district down in Belleville. And there's a Lady down there who asked me to Sponsor the Bill because she's done banking business for a number of other people who are perfectly capable, mentally of doing their business, but physically uncapable...incapable of doing it and I would ask for a favorable vote. If there are any questions, I'll try to answer them on this one."

"Any discussion, the Gentleman from Vermilion, Representative Black."

"Thank you very much. Mr. Speaker. Will the Sponsor yield?"

"He indicates he will."

"Thank you. Representative, I think, as you've explained it, the idea is indeed a good one. I...perhaps you could give us some clarification on what your thoughts might be 53  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 about how we'll safeguard the senior citizens of financial...you know, a lot of them are going to deal in cash. Some are going to want their right of privacy protected, and I think if the Bill is deficient in any form, and it's certainly a good idea. It might be in that form and you might want to tell us what your ideas are on that?"

"Well so far as safeguard is concerned, they have to be doing business with that institution. For example, all it does is save them the problem of either sending people to the regular bank institution or going in themselves, when they are unable to go and it let's the bank or the credit union or the financial institution in case this savings and loan come to them. Now, they would do normal banking affairs. They would not do loans and that sort of thing. It would do just normal banking like deposits, cashing checks and that sort of business. It would be the normal everyday business you would do at a counter and as far as safeguards are concerned they would be dealing with the institution they wish to deal with."

"The Gentleman from Lee, Representative Myron Olson."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Would the Gentleman yield?"

"Yes, I yield."

"Representative Flinn, this is a good piece of Legislation. I think it would to be fair to assume that the responsible agency would promulgate rules through the Joint Committee of Administrative Rules to make sure that the seniors are safeguarded. Would that be fair to say?"

But...a simplified procedure for the State to pay local special assessment property taxes when such assessments improved state property. What is that simplified procedure?" 57  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day Leitch:

May 9, 1989 "Well, Representative, right now it is very difficult for the process to work because as a practical matter the State does not pay it's assessments when these special assessment projects are passed by various local improvement boards. And SO while in larger projects very often, screen improvements, sidewalks and the like are made a part of the program. In many smaller projects which add to the value of state owned property, such is not the case. And this would simplify it by merely including the state with other just treat it as it would a residential homeowner or any other property owner along the front footage of a special assessment project."

Thank you."

"Speaker, I really think that those who are voting green ought to take a look at this Bill. Apparently there are 16 folks up there that haven't had a chance to read the 58  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 analysis and as a result, they should reconsider. I mean this is an important Bill and that green vote. I see some up there that might even be considered targets, so you better be careful because this Bill has got some problems given the fact that it's his first Bill I frankly don't know why we allowed him to have it. But if we could get up there to about 100 red then I think we would be alright."

"Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Mr. Clerk, take the record. On this question there are 110 voting 'yes', 2 voting 'no', and none voting 'present'.

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. As of July 1, 1988, the Department of State Police are authorized to collect and disseminate information regarding criminal offenses motivated because of race, color, religion or national origin. What this Bill does is to add to that list physical handicapped or sexual orientation. The collection of this information, of course, is contingent upon the availability of State and Federal funds for such purpose. The Department of State Police and the Police Training Board make available to Police trainees courses to aide in the identification and response to and report of such incidents. The Department of State Police has no opposition to the Bill although they indicated that some time in the future they would 59  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day appreciate some State funding in order to reporting requirements that were passed May 9, 1989 implement the that went into effect July 1st. I know of no opposition to the Bill. I'd be happy to answer any questions and would appreciate a favorable vote."

"Gentleman from DuPage, Representative McCracken."

"Thank you, I rise in opposition to the Bill and I want to ask everybody here, whatever happened to the concept of equal protection under the laws? Whatever happened to the concept of legislation affecting all people impartially and equally? I know the Sponsor's intentions are noble. I know it seeks to cure what some would call a history of discrimination. But really what it does is create a favored class under the law. It really is telling everybody in our society that not only are they a minority but it is a favored class of minority. Now I think the law should be neutral on this. I think this is a moral position in some respects or at least the concept of homosexuality is a moral issue to many people. It is not something that should be legislated. We should not be passing a law that a favored class in this state is the homosexual community. It is wrong. They are already protected under the law. They already have equal protection of the laws. This is just another example of a bad concept going down the wrong road. It started in 1964 with the Civil Rights Legislation. At that time, one of the Sponsors. Senator Humphrey said, no, there will be no quotas, there will be no reverse discrimination. And all we have seen since then is going down the road to reverse discrimination. Discrimination that's worse than anything that ever occurred in the past. Discrimination sanctioned by our laws and it's disgusting. Now this may not be 60  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 exactly reversed discrimination in the sense that it sets quotas. But, it does tell our society that unless you are a homosexual you are not worthy of protection under our Civil Rights Laws, and that is wrong. It should be equal protection under the laws and this concept of special legislation for every conceivable sub-group of humanity is nonsense. They're currently covered by the law protecting them against criminal activity as is every other American, and for that matter, illegal aliens. So there is no class of persons not already covered under the law and subject to the equal protection under the laws. It's a bad idea. It's done to placate an interest group and it's awful legislation."

"Gentleman from Cook, Representative Preston."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. I rise in support of House Bill 706 and respectfully disagree with the diatribe of my learned colleague, Representative McCracken. I think if you read the provision of this Bills you'll see that it is aimed at fighting discrimination not in being discriminatory itself, not in anyway, whatsoever. I think perhaps the ... my learned colleague has not carefully read the Bill. Perhaps, he read an analysis that was incorrect. What this Bill requires is simply that there be statistics kept, information, records kept of crimes that are committed against individuals because they are gay, so that we can have some hard evidence as to whether or not there are crimes committed against the gay and lesbian community or not. Perhaps the information we get back is that there is no need for special protective legislation because there is no discrimination, no attacks that are made against this community because of it's existence. However, on the other hand we might indeed find that this group is discriminated 61  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 against, that crimes are committed against them because and only because of their sexual orientation and with that information the legislature may or may not decide that other further legislation is necessary. This simply gives us, a legislative body, information which today we lack. Now, in response to what Representative McCracken said about we're choosing one community and we ought not to do that, we have special categories of communities right now where special statistics are kept to see if there are crimes that are committed against disabled individuals, whether or not there are crimes committed against children, whether or not there are crimes committed against senior adults. And this would simply say we ought to also keep records as to where and when and if there are crimes committed against the gay and lesbian community to see if there does indeed exist special discrimination which we ought to eradicate in our society. This gives us information only. It's a simple Bill that does nothing more than that and we ought not be afraid of obtaining information. So I'd encourage you to vote 'yes' on House Bill 706."

"Any discussion? Gentleman from Madison, Representative Stephens."

"Well thank you, Mr. Speaker. I'm having some trouble understanding the motivation behind this Bill. Make no mistake about it, when you're going to get some no votes against this Bill, it has nothing to do with the physical handicap language in the Bill. The opposition to this Bill lies directly connected with the sexual orientation language, and we've got some problems understanding that because year after year in the General Assembly we talk about confidentiality. It's the one thing we want to make sure we don't want to identify someone for being gay or a 62  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 homosexual. And now, we want to train our State Police in how to identify them, so that surely we could keep some extra records. If a couple, a man and a woman, are walking through the park, and they get beat up; we just want to call that a crime. We're not going to give them any special recognition. But if two guys are walking through the park holding hands and they get beat up, let's call out the forces. Let's call out the State Police. let's get out the record books. Let's make sure that we identify these people because, for goodness sakes, we wouldn't want to violate their rights and stop and help that couple that happened to be a man and a woman. We want to run over and take care of the gay couple to make sure that their rights, for goodness sakes, have been protected. And by the way, make sure that we don't devulge their name and identity, because they have this other problem. They don't want to know...they don't want the rest of the world to know who they are, but then they want to be protected. They want to be a special class of society rather than just being red blooded Americans subject to the laws just like everyone of us. What's wrong with being treated by the Constitution of this State, by the laws of this State, the laws that govern this Country, just like a normal human being? Thank you, Mr. Speaker."

"Gentleman from Winnebago, Representative Hallock. Further discussion? The Gentleman from Cook, Representative Cullerton to close."

"Well thank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. I think if everyone in this country was treated the same and was treated with respect, perhaps we wouldn't have to pass a Bill like this. But unfortunately we are not all treated the same. People are discriminated against because of race, because of their color, because of 63  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 their religion or their national origin. And so a few years ago, we passed a Bill, which passed overwhelmingly everyone supported it, which just said to the State Police, 'let's collect information concerning these particular types of crimes.' Crimes where the crime itself is committed only because of the status of the victim and we have increased penalties for certain victims. People who are senior citizens, if they're the victim of a crime there is an increased penalty. So we do recognize that in crime certain people can be singled out just because of their status. All this Bill says is that we're going to add to that list, crimes that are committed against someone because of their sexual orientation or because they have a physical handicap. Now, let me just tell you that this is not a radical Bill in any way. As a matter of fact the Bill is referred to as the Hate Crime Statistics Act. It's being Sponsored in the United States Senate and House. The Sponsors in the House include Congressman Henry Hyde, Congressman Lynn Martin and other prominent Republicans and in the Senate, the Senate Sponsor is Senator Orin Hatch. This Bill is an important Bill. It's viewed as an important Bill because there are many people in the gay community that feel that they are the victims of crimes and the motivation of the crime is simply because of the way they choose to be oriented. For that reason, I don't think you have anything to worry about in supporting a relatively simple Bill which just adds two categories to a list that's already on the State Law. For that reason, I would ask for an 'aye' vote, and would appreciate your support."

"The question is, 'Shall House Bill 706 pass?' All those in favor signify by voting 'aye', those opposed 'nay'. The voting is open. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish?

"House Bill 487, a Bill for an Act to amend Sections of the Public Community College Act. Third Reading of the Bill."

"Gentleman from Sangamon, Representative Curran."

"Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. This Bill simply requires the Community College Board to establish annual faculty seniority list categorized by the position. It extends to the Community College System the same responsibilities and privileges that the K-12 system has. I don't think there is any opposition to this and I ask for a favorable Roll Call."

"Gentleman from McLean, Representative Ropp."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Would the Sponsor yield please?"

"He indicates he will."

"Representative, is this a requirement that we in fact can already do at the present time?"

"I didn't hear the question."

"Okay, is it possible to establish this list now in the Community College System or are you just attempting to put this into law so that it's in concrete versus what we can do right now without this law?"

"Well, first of all, I would imagine that with great effort, almost anything is possible. This simply extends to the Community College Board, who does not object to the Bill, the same responsibilities and privileges that we give to the K-12 system. I repeat, I don't think there is any opposition to this Bill." 65  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day

"Further discussion? The Gentleman from Saline, Representative Phelps."

"Lady from Champaign, Representative Satterthwaite."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 733 makes some changes in the Illinois 66  37th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 9, 1989 Vehicle Code to allow private subdivisions who have petitioned both the counties and the cities for traffic control signs to be able to have them installed by their private contractors and pay the private contractors provided it meets the county and the municipalities approval that, the counties and municipalities passes the ordinances allowing it and to also conform to the Highway Vehicle Code. Some years ago, about 1985, the General Assembly was helpful in adopting these laws and helping the smaller subdivisions in the State of Illinois to allow this traffic control on these private roads and since it was my Bill I thank you for your support then. This tends to clarify and remove some of the restrictions that were inadvertantly placed in the original Legislation in 1985. I do ask for your support."

"Any discussion? The question is, 'Shall House Bill 73...' excuse me, Representative, the Gentleman from Vermilion, Representative Black."

"Representative, I believe you amended this Bill did you not that any such signs do in fact have to be installed in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations?"

"Yes, actually the Section did include that it had to conform to the code but for the purpose of clarification I also added Amendment #1 that specifically again repeats that, that was part of the original Bill, to meet all the objections and concerns."

"One last question, if...assuming this becomes law, have you given any thought, or the body that brought this Bill to you given any thought, as to the question of liability in a case where a residential area would put in a sign and 67  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 that results later in the sign creating an accident or someone saying that it did. Would the Highway Superintendent be liable, or the county or what?"

"Well last year, there were a number of attempts, I think I amended about 14 or 15 different Bills to give this immunity to the local officials. In fact, I had it on Representatives Hannig's Bill at one time and it did get caught up in the Governor's Veto Message. However, it's felt that with this Amendment, with the change of the local authority, language out of that one sentence they won't need that indemnity and it would resolve that problem that we had."

"Representative Lang."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. Amendment #1 becomes the Bill. This amends the Family Expense Act and it simply states that biological parents will be responsible for medical expenses of their children. I've had situations come up in my law practice, where parents of children who are not married try to avoid responsibility for their children's medical expenses. And by adding this sentence to the Family Expense Act we will obviate that problem. I ask...that we adopt, I move that we adopt the Amendment."

"The Gentleman has moved for the adoption of Amendment #1 to House Bill 633, and on that question, the Gentleman from Cook, Representative Piel."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker, will the Gentleman yield for a question?"

"He will."

"Lou, we got a question in reference to the the wording the way it is in there. How would this affect an adoptive situation?"

"I could not hear the...did you ask how it affects adoptions?"

"How would it affect the situation adoption? You're talking about biological parents."

"Well, the purpose of the Amendment is not to keep people that currently have responsibility from paying. What it 78  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 does is clarify the responsibility of the biological parent. An adoptive parent will not have any different responsibilities if we adopt this Amendment."

"So, there's no way that this could be construed...I'm looking at a situation where the adoptive parents do know who the biological parents are. There is no way this could be construed to where the adoptive parents could go after the biological parents and say, 'hey, I want you to pay part of this.' You know, technically, the adoptive parents are the legal parents of the child."

"Well, that's certainly not the intention of the Bill. And that's not the way I read it. I think we'll just have a simple situation, where the biological father, for instance, who, is nowhere to be found, is suddenly found by the biological mother who has custody of the child. She can, then make the biological the medical bills." father pay

"I have no qualms with that Lou. I understand what your point is what you're trying to do but and I have no qualms with that whatsoever. But, what my question dealt with was strictly the area of adoption. So the way that you're putting this in and the way your interpretation is is that the adoptive parents cannot go back to the biological parents and ask them for any medical expenses in the future. Correct?"

"Well, I understand your concern, Representative. I don't think that problem will occur I think it's written in a way that will alleviate that problem."

"Okay, thank you, no further questions, Madam Speaker."

"Is there any further discussion? Hearing none. The question is, 'Shall Amendment #1 be adopted?' All those in favor say 'aye'. all those opposed 'no'.

"Well, Madam Speaker, I wasn't sure about that and I certainly don't object to Representative Cullerton's objection, but since they have been printed and distributed, I'm trying to speak as slowly as I can so that Representative McCracken might come down and enlighten us as to the Amendment."

Page 53, this is Third Reading. Please survey this order of business and if you have Bills to present please be in your seat and ready to present it. The first Bill is House Bill 2, Representative Preston. Mr. Clerk, read the Bill."

"House Bill #2, a Bill for an Act to amend the School Code. Third Reading of the Bill."

"Representative Preston."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker, and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 2 amends the School Code and requires that all elementary schools in Illinois include in there curriculum in each of grades kindergarten through 124  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 eighth a unit of instruction on drug abuse avoidance. The definition of what a unit is is left to the individual school board to decide. So, it may be as extensive or as minimal as is considered at the discretion of the individual school board. I think at this time in Illinois, we have probably no more meaningful, no more important piece of legislation than this. Governor Thompson indicated in his State of the State Message that he thought that prevention of drug abuse through education is where Illinois ought to be focusing its assets and its energies in 1989 and beyond. That's what the...now our drug czar, who, when he was head of the Department on Education in Washington, indicated also that education is the key to prevention of drug problem in the youth of America. Through this Bill, if we start at an early age, and the key here is starting at an early age, to educate children that even even in kindergarten and first and second grade to tell children that their moms and their dads are the people who give medicines to them and they don't take medicine or pills or drugs from a stranger unless that individual is a doctor or a school nurse or a mother or a father or someone in there...in whose custody and control they're in,... later on a curriculum could become more extensive and through this early repetitive education we will stem a problem, nip a problem in the bud before we have to intervene with corrective measures and with therapy later on."

"House Bill 2. This Bill, Ladies and Gentlemen, is one of those Bills that received no negative votes in Committee. This Bill and all of the other Bills on this order of business therefore, will be under that order where we will recognize people to speak in opposition only. If there are questions that Members would like to ask, you will be recognized for a question. But my first question 125  37th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 9, 1989 to the membership is: 'Does anyone rise in opposition? If there is, I will recognize that person. Are there questions? Representative Cowlishaw has a question. Proceed Representative Cowlishaw."

"Thank you, Madam Sponsor. Will the Sponsor...Madam Speaker. Will the Sponsor yield?"

"He will."

"Representative Preston we all recognize the importance of early education on this subject. I noticed, however, that you mentioned that one of the provisions of this Bill is that it doesn't say it has to be eight weeks or it doesn't give any specific time commitment, and it's my understanding that that is your response to what might be an objection on the basis that this is an unfunded mandate. Is your reason for doing so in order to preclude there being any validity to that what otherwise would certainly be a valid objection."

"Yes, Representative it is. That was...it was specifically designed so that a school district who...that did not have necessary funding to do an extensive program, could do a minimal fulfillment of this mandate by (for example) Inviting the local Police Department to make a presentation at an assembly at one time during the year. That would fulfill the mandate. It wouldn't satisfy Preston. I would like to think it wouldn't satisfy Cowlishaw but it would fulfill the mandate so that there can't be an objection 'well we don't have the money.' If you don't have the money, you can do it very inexpensively. If you do have the money as some school districts do and some school districts now voluntarily do beautiful jobs of having Drug Abuse Voidance Education in their schools, the more you can afford the more extensive your program may be and the more that an adjacent school district or some other 126  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 school district might want to emulate your program, might want to copy it and borrow it for use in their own school district without going through the expenditure of a curriculum development. That's a long answer. I guess the simple answer is yes."

"Thank you, Representative Preston and thank you for permitting me to ask the question, Madam Speaker."

"Representative Dunn, for what reason do you seek recognition?"

"Not with regard to the Bill, but are you outlining the procedure for debate?"

"Yes, that's the procedure for debate for Bills on the Short Debate Calendar. You recognize the person to speak in opposition. Otherwise we allow people to ask questions. That's always been the procedure. That's not new."

"One person in opposition."

"One person in opposition."

This was suggested by the township officials of Illinois. Similar legislation has passed in previous sessions. One by Representative Klemm for golf course purposes. This is an answer to some of those townships that want to acquire more open space but do not want to go to the Open Space Referendum and the bonding. I would seek your approval of House Bill 43."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. Simply, this legislation responds to a situation 130  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 that occured in our state last year. We're all aware of the devastation of the drought that occured in Illinois and accrosS the midwest. Many farmers in Illinois went to their local insurance agents, their crop insurance agents and purchased drought insurance with the Chub International Group. When the drought was occuring and going on through June two weeks later to three weeks, they were told, 'you paid your money up front but you can't have insurance. We don't have enough money to fund your coverage.' The farmers got a real raw deal in Illinois and in Ohio, Indiana, and Minnesota and all of our midwestern states. If wasn't for a Federal District Law Suit in Ohio to enjoin the company that is now making payments back to the farmers this situation would occur again. We don't know what the situation in Illinois and the Midwest is gonna be this year as far as moisture for our farmers. This Bill simply mandates that any insurer in Illinois that provides drought insurance shall notify the farmer within ten days whether they're accepted or rejected for their application. I ask you for your support."

At the request of Kelly Cost of the Democratic Staff. I would like to take the Bill out of the record for purposes of a favorable Amendment."

"Out of the record, House Bill 124, Representative Preston. Mr. Preston, this is your Bill on Third Reading. Clerk, read the Bill."

"House Bill 124, a Bill for an Act to amend the School Code. Third Reading of the Bill."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 124...has been the program really throughout the country, starting in the United States Congress and really in this General Assembly as well, of removing mandatory Retirement Ages, what House Bill 124 does is to remove the mandatory retirement ages for teachers and principals throughout Illinois. Right now there's a mandatory retirement age of 70 which simply makes no since and we were talking earlier about discrimination. This discriminates against senior adults as a classification rather than requiring seniors to be treated as everyone else on a individual basis. One person at 70...one person at 60 or in the case of perhaps of my seat mate a few years earlier than 60 might be quite incompetent and in other cases somebody who is beyond 70 might be very competent. Rosco Pound, when he was in his 80's wrote a 12 volume treatise on the Chinese Legal System and others we know including President Reagan served as President of the United States way beyond the age of 70. There is no justification whatsoever, to regard an individual as a group, or a group of individuals one single way because a page comes off of a Calendar. The United States Congress wiped out mandatory Retirement Ages for all federal employees except for police officers and military. We in 132  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 Illinois have done that in many categories of employees and this does it for teachers and for principals. I'd be glad to answer any of your questions and I encourage any of your 'aye' vote."

"The Gentlemen has moved for the passage of House Bill 124. Does anyone rise in opposition? The Lady from Dupage, Representative Cowlishaw."

"Madam Speaker, I did not vote 'no' on this Bill in Committee. I voted present, but I would like to explain my reason for that position. The fact is that generally the people who have attained a greater age than the average for teachers and principals are those who are receiving the highest salaries and therefore, are the most costly to school districts. When those people retire they are generally replaced by someone considerably younger and because of the way the salaries schedules work both for principals and for teachers many times the replacement individual cost less money for the school district. Of this Bill does have cost factors for school districts, I agree that we ought not to require someone to retire simply because they have reached a certain age and that there may well be people who are 70 or 72 or beyond, who do such an excellent job that they are worth every penny of those rather high salaries that people of that age receive. Never the less, our schools are in severe financial problem. One in every 5 school districts in this state is right now on the watch list of financially troubled school districts as determined by the State Board of Education. That is a deplorable situation. To the extent that this Bill will cost school districts money, I have to vote present."

"Representative Preston to close."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker. With all due respect to my 133  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 learned colleague on the other side of the aisle, I think even to vaguely imply that we ought to cure the financial problems of school districts by discriminating against senior adults who have spent a lifetime as being taxpayers rather than taxeaters and want to continue being taxpayers rather than being retired and becoming pension and taxeaters is quite outrageous. I think that this not only saves money for taxpayers, but it preserves human dignity and preserves the most able of our teachers and principals those with the most experience. This doesn't mean in anyway whatsoever, that someone who is at a given age has to be maintained on a payroll no matter...no matter what. no matter if they're able or not. This just means if some one wants to continue working."

"Representative Preston, bring your remarks to a close. You have one minute to close in Short Debate. Representative Preston is recognized to bring his remarks to a close, Mr. Electrician."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker Members of the House. House Bill 240 seeks to create a Civic Center authority through 137  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 the city of Harvey, Illinois. Harvey, Illinois is located in the South Cook County Suburbs and is in a very strategic location to be able to attract Conventions, Trade Shows, etc., etc., and in fact, boarders other communities where a large concentrations of hotels are in the South Suburban area. The South Suburban area that would be covered by the Harvic Civic Center Authority would be able to utilize the facility, would encompass about 900,000 people which is larger than many states in the United States and in terms of drawing convention business and tourism business and trade show business, the city of Harvey has a facility that needs to be renovated in order to do that, a facility that can be expanded and renovated to serve in essence as a incubator for various kinds of trade shows and conventions. In some cases, what's happened before the city has managed to bring in conventions, nurture them until they've grown and then moved off either to Champaign or to Peoria or to Chicago. So in a very important area of the state, a state that certainly needs to have the kind of business that could be brought in by the Convention Center the Civic Center Authority is important. The city, also is also aware that right now, there's a lack of funding for Civic Center Authorites. They are willing to be put on the list and wait their turn, but they feel it is important at least to be considered at some point for the creation of the authority, the renovation of the building in order to attract some of the business that they would be able to attract."

"Representative Black, that's a question I really cannot answer. I'm not, I have not been in touch with DCCA or the agencies that fund the Civic Center so I really have no idea what the unfunded liability of the program is."

"Thank you, Madam Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. This Bill contains not only House Bill 251 but also House Bill 97 that was introduced by Representative Ewing and he asked me if I would add it as an Amendment to his Bill. So first, let me explain what House Bill 251 is. It amends the Code of Civil Procedure provide that partnerships may sue as well as be sued in the firm name or as individual partners doing business as a partnership or both. Currently a partnership may be sued in the names of the partners and individuals doing business as a partnership or in the firm name or both. So the change is that allows partnership to both sue and be sued under the name of the partnership. Now the second...I better tell you about the second part of the Bill because that's House Bill 97 and that's Representative Ewing's Bill. This provides that when notice by publication is used in a proceeding a plaintiff or his or her attorney rather than the Circuit Clerk shall mail a copy of the published notice to the defendant and file an affidavit stating that the copy was mailed and it provides that the copy of the notice shall be sent by certified mail. A current law...well, let's put it this way, the Bill shifts the burden of mailing copies of the publication notice from the Clerks of 140  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 the Circuit Court to the plaintiff or the attorney for the plaintiff.

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen. This Bill is similar to the last Bill in that it clarifies current law and rids the confusion that is now in the court system with respect to cases where a defendant is charged with a felony for commission of an offense having a value of more than $300.00. A year ago, we cleared it up with respect to 149  37th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 9, 1989 theft prosecutions. This Bill addresses the issue of when someones charged the offense of criminal damaged to property in excess of $300.00, thereby creating a felony offense that the jury shall have before the issue of the value of the property. It is in fact under this Bill, an element of the offense and not something that should be left for the judge to determine at sentencing. Again, this is a Bill to provide fairness and equity to defendants, to put the burden of proof on prosecutors to prove the element of the offense as to the value to the property that would justify the charging of the Felony offense. Again I think it's an un...noncontroversial Bill that does what we've already done for other criminal offenses. Only this time we're dealing with criminal damage to property to make the Criminal Code uniform and fair and equitable. I would urge your support."

"There's inconsistent applications. Some judges rule that it's an issue to be decided by the judge at the time of sentencing, that the jury should only determine whether there's been an offense of criminal damage and the judge 150  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 will reserve it to himself as to whether the value exceeds three hundred to warrant a Felony.

"That's it." Dunn, J: "Thank you."

"Representative Hultgren."

"There will be no cost involved in as much as the Commerce Commission is already compiling this data and they have it all on their computer."

"So...so somebody is going to be putting together everything free, of charge, donating the papers, compiling the study. Everything's going to be absolutely free outside of the fact that they have the information. It must be some cost involved."

"The information is already compiled and on the computer and the minimal cost would be simply the report that would be distributed to the 177 Members of this Body."

"But there would be a cost? Correct."

"Very minimal, yes Sir,."

"Do you have an idea what that cost is?" 156  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day

"Okay. Thank you."

"Representative Dunn do you rise in opposition to the Bill?"

"I have a question." Speaker Cullerton: proceed." "The Gentleman yields for questioning,

"What does the Amendment do?"

"The Amendment changed the date of the report to the General Assembly at the request of the Commerce Commission. Changed it from February to April."

"Wasn't there a provision in the original Bill the Commerce Commission to prepare a report to the General Assembly about perceived inadequacies in the Federal Legislation. Would the Amendment take that out, that requiring requirement out?

"Yes, the report is strictly to include now, the accidents in both involving hazardous materials and without any judgement by the Commerce Commission as to how those accidents might be prevented."

"And a...re the railroads in support of this, do you know? The Illinois Railroad Association?"

"As amended, the railroads are neutral."

"Are neutral?"

"That's my understanding."

"Thank you."

"Representative Mautino, House Bill 546."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 546 is a very simple Bill. It provides that the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs evaluate the effects that we impose upon a segment of our society namely a small business person when we enact laws or provide for rules and regulations, the normal process now is we do economic impact studies before something occurs and is basically a questimale. What this legislation does is says...over the next two years, we evaluate exactly what we have done to or for or against small business people with the enactment of our laws and our legislation. It's a good piece of legislation, I move for its passage."

"House Bill 548, a Bill for an Act to authorize Illinois into a Compact. Third Reading of the Bill."

"Gentleman from Rock Island, Representative Brunsvold."

"Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 548 would set up a Quad City Interstate Metropolitan Authority. This is outlined legislation that would be sent to the Attorney General's in each state and then on to Congress for their approval. The voter plate language is set up here for the cooperation of Iowa and Illinois and particularly, Rock Island County and Scott County in Iowa, to cooperate on some mutual interest. For example, 'solid waste disposal, river bridges, riverport development, airports and public transportation.' This is a Compact. It simply has to be okayed by Congress before we can proceed with the technical language and I would ask for your support. By the way, the Iowa House has passed this Bill 98 to nothing. And this is substantially the same language as Iowa has passed."

"Gentleman's moved for passage of House Bill 548. Does anyone stand in opposition? The Gentleman from DuPage, Representative McCracken."

"Not opposition, but I'd like to ask a question. Does this grant Taxing Authority and if SO can the taxes be levied only persuant to referendum?"

"The language that was copied from the Iowa Bill...we started out with the same language. They made some changes in Iowa before they passed the Bill and part of the changes in the Iowa provision were that the authority shall have no independent power to tax. That authority would have to be 159  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 granted by the counties in this case. After the enabling legislation the more technical detailed legislation would be passed, say next year if we would get approval on this language."

"So the...the counties would have to authorize the tax and this doesn't address what that authority would require."

"Yea, the counties would approve, would pass a tax with everything in this provision as is outlined by the Visions Group that worked together to put this together would call for a front door referendum on all these issues. Now, that would be incorporated in the enabling legislation, the Front Door Referendum stipulation would be in the enabling legislation which would come later if this Compact gets approved."

"Alright, okay. Thank you."

"Lady from Dupage, Representative Cowlishaw."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. House Bill 586 was suggested by the State Board of Education. It establishes a pre-claim procedure for state aid claims and requires that these pre-claims be filed by March 1 which would permit there to be time to get corrections made in errors in those, those...those claims by the time that the final claims are to be submitted on July 1. Presently, there is only one submission of these claims each year and that is on July 1. The State Board of Education reports that for the 1987-88 school year, the state aid claim as filed by school districts in this state contained more than 1000 errors and more than 80 percent of the districts filing these claims submitted claims that contained one or more errors. There is unfortunately, quite a delay in processing these claims because of the time that is required to detect and then to correct these errors, the State Board believes that by having a pre-claim filed on March 1, they would detect those errors earlier and could get them corrected in a more timely fashion. I urge support of House Bill 586."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker and Members of the House. I'm joined in this fine piece of legislation by the Chairman of the Elementary and Secondary Education Committee, Mr. Mulcahey.

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Members of the House. House Bill 623 validates Tax Levying and Appropriation Ordinances for Cook County, the Cook County Forest preserve District and the Dupage County Forest Preserve District for the last two years. This is something the legislature has been doing since 1966 and the purpose is to free up the use of what we call the nonsubstantative procedural objections as the basis for challenging tax levies and extensions. All the other requirements of the law have to be complied with and this is as I mentioned something that the legislature does every year, after the fact. And I would ask for your support."

"Gentleman moves for the passage of House Bill 623. Does anyone stand in opposition? Lady from Cook, 165  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 9, 1989 37th Legislative Day Representative Pullen."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. The Gentleman indicated I believe, that this was for the purpose of removing certain forms of objections. What that actually means I think at least in terms of the answers that I've received in response to questions I've made about this Bill almost every year is that it removes one way that people can protest there property taxes. It says after the fact that it's okay for these certain units of local government such as the county of Cook to make mistakes to fail to line item, their appropriation ordinance and their levy ordinance, to violate the law which sets forth the ways that they are to drop these ordinances. It allows them to do that, then comes back and says after the fact that even though they did it illegally it's okay anyway. And as a consequence, taxpayers who use to before the General Assembly started this very bad practice protest their taxes because the ordinance was drawn illegally, no longer have that avenue. We come along with this Bill, year after year and add yet another year to the approved after the fact violations of law. I think if the County of Cook doesn't want to line item its appropriation ordinance that it ought to come into this House and ask us to approve legislation...that let's them just levy their taxes and appropriate their budget on a total lump sum basis without line items. Let them admit that they don't want to submit to the same rules that we submit ourselves to. After all these years, I still cannot understand why we should do this to the taxpayers for these government officials who are in essence refusing to obey the laws that we enact and then coming down here and asking for forgiveness, instead of seeking Amendments to those laws SO that everyone would know before the fact up front 166  STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 37th Legislative Day May 9, 1989 what it is that they want to do. I really do think that it would be entirely responsible of this House to tell these certain limited numbers of local governments that they should have to abide by the laws that is on the books and the same laws that all other counties and Forest Preserve Districts have to abide by in Illinois. Your Counties and Forest Preserve Districts have to do this. Why shouldn't these. I suggest a no vote. Thank you."

"Being no further discussion. Representative Steczo to close."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, just a few comments. Number one this Bill does not apply only to Cook County in the Cook County Forest Preserve District. It does apply to Downstate Forest Preserve Districts and if I could just indicate to the previous Speaker that these Forest Preserve Districts in governmental Bodies do attempt to play by the rules, the rules of the Statutes. We heard last year about the Body of case law that's involved which makes is difficult for these local governments even when they follow the rules, to be able to follow them explicitly enough to make certain that the proper job has been done this assist them from getting caught in catch-22 situations where, for instance, the Cook County Forest Preserve District or the County of Cook publishes the Tax Levy Ordinance and it's the size of seven Chicago phone books. The protesting taxpayer comes in on a non-procedural vote...non-procedural argument says, 'it's to big, we can't find all the proper information, it's to cumbersom.' The next year the County of Cook tries to do things more easily and the same person would come in and say, 'it's to small we need more information soley to protest.' There was a case from Dupage County last year, where we were told because the individual who was the presiding officer of the Forest 167  37th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 9, 1989 Preserve District, failed to put their middle initial on their signature in their signature signing the ordinance that was the basis for one of these tax protests. We're trying to keep the counties within the law that's why we do this after the fact. They do attempt to comply with all the provisions of the Statutes that require them to publish. This Bill just tries to protect them from those non-procedural types of things that do happen where people try to take advantage and we don't want to have people take advantage and I would appreciate your 'yes' vote."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House, House Bill 628 is a package of three Bills. One of which is in the Senate and one of which is on Second Reading now and 628. What 628 offers to do is to remove the limit of debt to the indebtedness the county SO that we may finance the building of the Scott Air Force Base Joint Use Air Field. It's not something that we're likely to use but the bonding attorneys in 168  37th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 86th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE May 9, 1989 Chicago have suggested this needs to be done in order to encourage the financing from the Federal Government.

"Well, Mr. Speaker I'd like to explain my vote. This is the Bill that we tried to improve last week with Amendments that would have called for a sound proofing program to protect those few families that were negatively impacted by the expansion of the airport. We thought that that was an improvement to the Bill and, matter of fact, the very plan calling for the expansion of Scott Air Force Base calls for a sound proofing plan and I saw no reason why it ought not be part of the statutes. We're also concerned about a negative impact on a few pieces of property and we called for the Equity Protection Act to cause those people who might be negatively impacted from losing their property values. Mr. Speaker the joint use of Scott Air Force Base may be imminent. It may be the best thing that ever happened. And this maybe a necessary piece of legislation. However... however, I would remind the Members of the General Assembly that St. Clair County has..."

"Mr. Speaker, I'll only be about a minute more, if you will."

"That's all you have."

"The St. Clair County has 68 million dollars of bond indebtedness allowed. They have used 14 million dollars of it. They need 10 million dollars for the joint use program. I'm not sure this Bill is necessary, but it looks like it's going to go out. I'm going to vote present. A present vote indicates that I'm in a position to look favorably upon a joint use of Scott Air Force Base when all the information is in. The United Air force is yet to release its environmental impact statement. That impact statement is very crucial to whether this develpment is going to go or not. If it comes back favorably, we'll make a decision at that time. However, at this time, I think the right vote for a Representative who represents this area is present."

It dealt with the Child Passenger Protection Act requiring every person when transporting a child under the age of 6 who resides in the state responsible for securing the child in either a child restraint system or in a seat belt. The Department of Transportation had a problem with the Bill and therefore, they drafted Amendment for me which includes in the provision that it applied to the proper vehicles and also that the person responsible for providing for the protection of such child also has an exception in cases of medical emergencies. I'll be happy to answer any questions and appreciate your support."

"Yeah. It would be under the age of 4 years. It only is designed to cover birth thru 3 years of age. Those are only the ones that are required to have car seats."

"And no one can put a child in their car under age 4 if this becomes law without having the child restraint system available. Is that Correct?"

"Correct."

"So that, if grandpa doesn't have one of these in his car, he can't he has to tell his grandchild to stand out in the rain till he goes and gets one I guess."

"No, it simply means that in the child passenger protection system, the car seat follows the child which is what the practice is most people use them now."
