"Representative Cowlishaw, would you mind explaining your Amendment to the Members?"
"Yes, Sir. This is the...This is the Bill that would consolidate some of the school holidays, so that the children were in school, rather than out of school. Originally this Bill would have consolidated four holidays: One of those was Columbus Day; one was President's Day, which is, of course, in honor of George Washington; Casimir Pulaski Day; and the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Because of the very strong feelings by some of those of 7 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 25th Legislative Day March 12, 1993 those...of us who have respected Dr. King all these years and have - even some of our Members actually knew him - I am...All this Amendment does is take Dr. King's birthday out of this legislation entirely, so that now all this Bill does is consolidate three birthdays of people who lived a very long time ago: Casimir Pulaski, George Washington and Christopher Columbus."
"Thank you."
"The question is, 'Shall Amendment 1 be adopted?' All in favor say 'aye'; opposed, 'no'. The 'ayes' have it, and the Amendment's adopted. Representative Davis."
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. There are a number of people on this side of the aisle who feel that House Bill 38 is an anti-American Bill. George Washington, Christopher Columbus, Casimir Pulaski are people who earned their place in history along with Dr. Martin Luther King. People who claim to love Illinois and love America are about the stupid business of dividing this country. We're made up of all kinds of people, with all kinds of talent. Every day that school children are in, it costs a lot of money. The state education budget is also saving money by having those holidays, and to put those holidays back in it's going to cost the state additional money. I really think it's frivolous. I think it shows a lack of talent and creativity to find opportunities to deny American citizens the right to respect and give them a special day in which to honor those who have served this country. George Washington deserves a day by himself. Casimir Pulaski deserves a day. The school has a 176 days in which to teach the historical value of these people. I think it's tragic. I think it's a waste of taxpayers' money to even put this kind of legislation up here. People stood where 8 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 25th Legislative Day March 12, 1993 I'm standing today to fight for those holidays for school children, so that they could attend civic ceremonies; so that they could attend church services; so that they could go out in their community and commemorate and celebrate those individuals who made this country what it is to the degree of greatness that it has, and to attempt to take that away from us is simply absurd and preposterous. This person should be tarred and feathered."
"All right, having voted on the prevailing side, Representative Granberg moves to reconsider the vote by which Amendment 1 was adopted. All in favor say 'aye'; opposed, 'no'. The 'ayes' have it. The vote has been reconsidered. Now Amendment 1...Amendment 1 is now in front of the Body and if we wish to have a roll call, we will have a Roll Call on it. Further discussion on Amendment 1.

"I don't think..." 9 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 25th Legislative Day March 12, 1993
"Shirley Jones."
"Yeah, I don't think that nobody should make apologize to nobody because in effect, the whole Bill needs to be thrown out. This is not only just for Dr. Martin Luther King. This is for Columbus Day. This is for Pulaski Day. It's not only just dealing with Dr. Martin Luther King. The whole Bill should be thrown out, and I think that the Sponsor of this Bill should withdraw it."
"Representative Cowlishaw, for what reason do you rise?"
"Mr. Speaker, I am the Sponsor of this Bill. I ask you to take it out of the record."
"The Lady takes the Bill out of the record. Representative Black."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. The Bill's been removed, but...may I ask the Chair for permission to comment on some of the rhetoric that I heard?"
"Yes. Yes. Go right ahead."
"Thank you very much. Thank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. If you would give me the honor of giving me a little attention, I just want to point out to you one of the more brilliant pieces of logic I've heard in seven years. One of the Speakers said that if we have all of these holidays, we save billions of dollars, because the schools are closed. We already send our kids to school fewer days than any industrialized country in the world, but with that logic, let's prepare an Amendment to have a hundred more holidays. Look at the money we could save then. I never, in my seven years, have heard a more ridiculous, outrageous attack on a Bill that got out of committee. She insulted the Sponsor, she insulted the intelligence of this Body, and if that's all she cares 10 25th Legislative Day about STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE education, March 12, 1993 she should remove herself from that committee."

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Ladies and Gentlemen of the House, I am at least as well prepared to prevent this...present this...legislation as I am on a lot of my other Bills, so I ask for concurrence on House Bill 157."
"The Gentleman moves to concurrence: Senate Amendments 1, 2 and 6 to House Bill 157, and on that, Representative Wennlund."
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Ladies and Gentlemen of the House, House Bill 157 as amended by Senate Amendments 1, 2 and 6 is intended to clarify that the Emergency Medical Service System Act has continued in full force and effect since its original enactment in 1980. The Bill explains the history of the Act in detail, but, to summarize, when the EMS Systems Act was originally enacted in 1980, it included a Section 25, which stated that the Act was repealed as of January 1, 1986. This Section 25 appeared in the laws of Illinois, but was never published in any edition of the Illinois Revised Statutes. In 1985, the General Assembly added a new Section 25 relating to violations and penalties, but the old Section 25 was not explicitly referred to or struck out. Each subsequent General Assembly continued to amend the EMS Systems Act, and the Act has been administered without interruption by the Illinois Department of Public Health. A few days ago, West (Publishing Company) notified the Legislative 12 25th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE March 12, 1993 Reference Bureau that during their compilation of the Illinois Compiled Statutes, they had discovered the existence of the old Section 25 repealer, and that they intended to include this old section in the new compiled statute books. In order to resolve any possible ambiguity regarding the EMS Systems Act in the new books, this Bill clearly says that the General Assembly's intention that old Section 25 be replaced by the new Section 25 and that the Act was never, therefore, repealed. Indeed, it is clear that the Act has continually been in effect since 1980. The history of continuing Amendments to the EMS Systems Act clearly manifests the intention of the General Assembly to remove the old Section 25 repealer and have the Act continue in effect beyond January 1, 1986. In 1986, the General Assembly amended the Act to add important provisions, est...establishing trauma centers. In fact, in all, the General Assembly has amended the Act 17 times since January 1, 1986. There can be no doubt that it was, and continues to be, the intention of the General Assembly and the Governor that the EMS Systems Act was the law of the state at all times since the original repealer date. As you all know, the EMS Systems Act contains a number of programs that are essential to the continuing health and safety of the people of Illinois. Any construction of Section 25, that results in the repeal of the Act on January 1, 1986, would be totally inconsistent with the manifest intent of the General Assembly and repugnant to the context of the statute. It would create serious potential risk to the health and safety of the people of Illinois. Therefore, this Bill is intended to clearly resolve any possible ambiguity regarding the continued effectiveness of the EMS Systems Act and to clearly 13 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 25th Legislative Day March 12, 1993 reassure both the courts and the people of Illinois of the General Assembly's intent. In addition, to ensure that the dedicated individuals who are part of the EMS Systems and who re...and who relied on the provisions of this Act, in good faith, have every possible protection. The Bill also expressly validates all previously enacted Amendments to the Act and validates all actions taken in reliance on, and pursuant to the Act, by the Illinois Department of Public Health and/or any other person or entity. At the core of the EMS System are emergency medical technicians, EMTs, who, in downstate Illinois, often are volunteers, and any possible interpretation exposing these volunteers to the risk of liability is unacceptable. The Bill also clearly states that this Bill applies to all claims, civil actions and proceedings pending in or filed on or before the effective date of House Bill 157. I am confident that the courts will recognize the continued effectiveness of the Act, but on the off-chance that a judge overrules the clear intention of the General Assembly, Sections 33(c) and (d) expressly validate and give retroactive effect to the Act. Finally, in order to further ensure the continuing effectiveness of the Act, the Bill reenacts the entire Act. While I am confident that the Act, in fact, continues to be the law of Illinois, this reenactment will give clear public notice of the provisions of the Act in the future. I ask for your support of House Bill 157. Thank you."
"Mr. Wennlund, thank you for those extemporaneous remarks. Mr. Black."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I have an inquiry of the Chair. This appears to be a House Bill that has been amended in the Senate, and under the new Rule of the House, this Bill has to go to Rules Committee. ...Has this Bill, 14 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 25th Legislative Day March 12, 1993 in fact, been heard by the Rules Committee?"
"Yes."
"And has, in fact, pursuant to... the new rules of notice on the Rules Committee, it's my understanding that, at this particular point in our Calendar, notice of said Rules Committee meeting must occur...one day prior to the notice of that meeting. Was that...stipulation met?"

"Yes."

"I do appreciate the..."
"If you wish to move to reconsider, the Chair is open to the Motion. We will stay...We will stay until tomorrow."
"No, I...I don't think...I...I understand the intent of the Chair only too well, and I will certainly not make that Motion, but I do thank the Chair for the indulgence. I...I just want to make sure we follow these new rules, these very reasonable rules, that we...and that we make sure...certain that we...we make sure that we have the proper and reasonable posting requirements on the Rules Committee, and I'm...I'm glad that you took care of that yesterday, Mr. Speaker."
"Thank you. Representative Hannig."
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Speaker. Will the Sponsor yield?" 15 25th Legislative Day
"Yes. Representative Dunn will yield."
"Yes, Representative, I...I don't think that anyone in here doubts that we need to...put this back into law, but I guess my question is, 'How did it ever not...How did this problem arise?' I mean, isn't the Department of Public Health or should not some agency that administers this law be aware of when...the ...sunset provisions kick in?"
"Well, in answer to the question, I think the...Secretary of State is the...keeper of the state statute books. I don't remember who that Secretary was in 1986. ...He's long gone now. I can't remember where he went."
"Is...is there any...is (sic-are) there any provisions in this rece..law that would provide that this kind of thing doesn't happen again?"
"Well, we only...switch from West to compile statutes about once every hundred or 200 years, so I think we're safe for quite a while."
"Well, I...I mean my concern is that I don't think anybody really wants to be here today, but we know we have to be to do this, ...but it's really not a very good way to...to run government, to let these laws lapse, and I would suggest that maybe we oughta, at some point, take a better look at this and find out who is in charge of reviewing these laws."
"I think you're right."
"Thanks."
"I would like to move on. I have a very long-winded closing speech I'd like to give on this Bill, so I'd like to get goin' here."
"All right. Any further discussion? There being none, Representative Dunn, to close."
"I move for concurrence of Senate Amendments 1,2 and 6 to STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 25th Legislative Day March 12, 1993 House Bill 157."
