"Thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, if we could have your attention briefly. We're joined today by Senator 1 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 26th Legislative Day March 16th, 1993 Woodyard, also from the...the district that we represent, in a proud moment to celebrate a very historical celebration. Senator Woodyard and I would like to introduce to you, from Paris, Illinois, the Crestwood Lady Eagles. The Crestwood Lady Eagles were the winners of the seventh-grade Class A championships, the winners of the eighth-grade Class A championships, and it's been the first time in IESA history for a school to repeat a seventh-grade championship and the first time ever for a school to win both the seventh- and eighth-grade championships in the same year. As you can tell, we've got a pretty aggressive, not to mention a pretty cute basketball team here; and they're coached by Laurie McCollum and Dave Kramer. The seventh grade had a 21-1 season and credit their victories for or extremely strong defensive game all season long. The eighth-grade team is coached by Laurie McCollum and Dave Kramer and have a 19-1 record in the season, and have a terrifically strong game from the field. They're supported by cheerleaders, score keepers, statisticians and managers, not to mention the parents. The teams not only had talent, sportsmanship, but also support of their school, classmates, teachers and parents. Senator Woodyard, you wanna come up and say a word?"
"Mike, thank you very much, and I simply want to add my congratulations. In talking to the girls a few minutes ago...realized how unique this is, for a small school district that is unique in itself. As a matter of fact, did you know that Crestwood is the only school in the State of Illinois that's a unit district with no high school? So, a lot uniqueness, but certainly I'm very proud of these young ladies to have brought a lot of honor upon themselves, as well as their community and school, by not 2 26th Legislative Day STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE March 16th, 1993 only winning the seventh-grade, but also the eighth-grade tournament.

"And now a brief word from their very hard-working coach, Laurie McCollum."
"I want to thank everyone for letting us come up here. I have an extremely talented group of young ladies. As they've told you, STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE March 16th, 1993 26th Legislative Day heard?"

Mr. Clerk, who is the Sponsor of the Amendment?"
"Amendment 1, offered by Representative Parcells."
"Representative Parcells on the Amendment."
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This Amendment was requested by the Illinois Municipal League to clarify the language of the Bill. The Bill was suggested by the Library Association and has the support of the municipal library and the library districts; and they asked us to clarify the language and that's what this Amendment does, and I'd ask for your support."
"The Lady moves for adoption of Amendment 1 to House Bill 424. On that Motion, is there discussion? The Gentleman from Kankakee, Representative Novak."

"That's intentional. The Gentleman from Clinton, Representative Granberg."
"Will the Sponsor yield?"
"She indicates she will."
"Representative, would this require that residents of a library district, they would have to go in a neighboring adjacent districts and pay additional fees?"
"It requires, and it originally looked as if it only covered library districts, but it now covers municipal libraries, that if you live in an area that has no library, you may go and buy a library card wherever you want to, and that library will be your library, and you may use it and you may take your books out from that library, but there are people who will go to the cheapest library around and then use a large library and they're taking the books out 6 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 26th Legislative Day March 16th, 1993 of the larger library when they are not paying the fees there. The people who in... for instance, in the town of Springfield, who are in a municipal library district are paying a great deal for their library and so those who come to buy should buy their tick... their library card in Springfield, not at the cheapest place they can find around the tow...the area."
"So...so this Bill would be a fee increase? This would constitute a fee increase?"
"No, not at all, absolutely not. And they can get books through inter-library loan through this meth... with this, the way it is now, too, with this Bill."
"The Amendments would say that a non-resident would have to...you'd have to pay a non-resident fee in order to obtain library privileges."
"That's the current law."
"So this... This would be a fee increase."
"No, no, Sir. You see, there are people who do not live in library districts, and they have no library privileges. That is to say, they can walk into a library; they can't take a book out. So people in non-library district areas right now, go somewhere to buy...to buy a card. This does not increase that at all. It just says the one that you go to is the one that you use."
"All right. Thank you."
"Representative Parcells, to close."
"I would just ask for your support for this... Amendment that has been proposed and...and approved by both the Municipal League and the library association."

There's no oversight provided for the investment of funds by the Treasurer and, so that in addition to any special studies that might be done by the Auditor General for the General Assembly, the Deputy Auditor General would perform an annual audit program of all programs conducted by the State Treasurer which involve the deposit of public funds of the state. We feel it's necessary that we have the position of Auditor General and he ought to audit the deposit by the Treasurer of all funds collected and distributed by his office. He also ought to... the Deputy Attorney General... the Deputy Auditor General ought to perform an annual special audit of the investment performance of investments made by the Treasurer of public funds of this state. Currently, as I've said before, there's no oversight of these particular investments and particular funds, and I think it will strengthen confidence in the public office and confidence in the state.

"The Gentleman from McHenry, Representative 16 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 26th Legislative Day March 16th, 1993 Skinner...on...Amendment 1. Representative Skinner."
"Hello, Mr. Speaker, this is a fairly important Bill. It's a Bill that raises the speed limit of trucks on interstate highways throughout Illinois from 55 to 65 miles an hour. During the last two weekends, I've spent probably 800 to a thousand miles on interstate highways in Illinois; and I'm here to report they're already driving 65 miles an (sic-per) hour. What this Amendment does is suggest that even if you think every truck in the state ought to be allowed to drive 65 miles an hour on every interstate highway, that you're not quite sure that those trucks that are carrying two trailers behind it (sic-them), will be safe at 65 miles an hour driving on interstate highways throughout the State of Illinois. This Amendment exempts...that is, this Amendment takes out the authority of double bottoms...to drive 65 miles an hour. They would still be restricted to 55 miles an hour. Now, if you are in favor of faster...trucks, you'd definitely want to vote against this Amendment; but if you're a little worried that your compact...car might get in an accident while passing one of these trucks when there's a big wind, you oughta vote in favor of the Amendment. I ask for your support."
"The Gentleman from Jefferson, Representative Hicks, on the Amendment."
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. I would stand in opposition to the Gentleman's Amendment. The reality of what we are trying to do with this Bill is simply to look for a uniform speed of all vehicles on the interstate highways... In the report that was presented at committee, a study was done this past year by the Safety Foundation of AAA, which said...said that the...uniformity of speed was in the best interests of...of 17 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 26th Legislative Day March 16th, 1993 safety. By having...by again exempting somebody else out of this, we are back to the same position we currently are, which is, not allowing all the vehicles to continue at the same speed, so for that reason I would stand in opposition to the Gentleman's Amendment and request a Roll Call Vote, Mr. Speaker."
"Representative Skinner, do you wish to close? Representative Skinner."
"Well, the Sponsor of this Bill may be correct. It may be safer to have every truck in the State of Illinois on interstate highway going 65 miles an hour. We just don't know. The study in question did not ask...answer the question of whether double bottoms going at a...at 65 miles an hour was safer than having them going at 55 miles an hour. What it suggested was that a uniform speed limit was safer than not having a uniform speed limit. I should suggest to you that when we get to the Bill, to the final Third Reading on this, there is countervailing evidence from the Illinois Department of Transportation that you'll wannna take into consideration. But here what we are talking about is one, one Amendment only, and that is, 'Shall double bottomed trailers that are on interstate highways be allowed to increase their speed legally from 55 to 65 miles an hour?' I would suggest that right now, they are going almost 65 miles an hour when the speed limit is 55 miles an hour. It's definitely a question of safety. Both the Sponsor and I agree upon that. I leave it to your judgment as to, as which shape the Bill should reach Third Reading. Thank you."
