PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) 3rd Reading. Mr. Secretary, read the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Majority Leader Lightford.

Thank you, Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate. Senate Bill 1213 amends -- as amended, provides a local appeal process for "unsatisfactory" ratings of teachers in order to allow school districts to adopt a policy to appeal teacher evaluations. So, about ten years ago, we addressed this issue when we did our PERA for professional evaluations of teachers and what we're finding over the years is that we need to make some adjustments with the categories being "satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory". I guess I'll -- I'd be happy to answer questions.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Is there any discussion? The question is, shall Senate Bill -- Senator Weaver, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Majority Leader Lightford.

So we're -- we're down to "satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory" and creating an appeals panel. And that appeals panel would be developed among union and management, a four-member appeals board, and there will be an agreement on who those individuals would be from both sectors.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Weaver.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Bertino-Tarrant, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

To the bill, Mr. President.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

I rise in support of the -- the Leader's bill. And I know you hear me say this often. As a fellow educator, I was an administrator much longer than I was a teacher and I still feel this is a -- a solid piece of legislation in order to support our -- our -- our educators. Many times administrators come into a building with different philosophies, different styles, and it's unfortunate that at one rating or one evaluation that that principal's personal style will impact the teacher. So I think this is a fair process in order -- the teacher, our educators, to have a -- systematic steps to -- to be able to discuss what is happening in the classroom and allow a -- a robust conversation with the administrators. I think it's a good piece of legislation. I thank the sponsor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Majority Leader Lightford, to close.

Thank you, Mr. President. I just wanted to go back and let 23  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Senator Weaver know that there is a four system and I just want to make sure that I made that clear. The amendment pretty much wiped out the original bill, so what we're left with now is just changing "ineffective" to "unsatisfactory". So you'll still have those four components of "unsatisfactory", "excellent", "proficient", "needs improvement". So I just wanted to clarify that. And -- and you're right, I think sometimes when teachers are scored and -- they may feel that they were treated unfairly. This just gives them a -- an appeal process that has to be negotiated amongst the panel. So it would be both two from management and two from labor. So in order for it -- the appeal process to be approved, it would have to be three votes. So one from management would have to come over or one from labor would have to come over, and it makes the process extremely fair. I'd be happy if you guys would put green lights on the board. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. President, Members of the General Assembly. Senate Bill 1223, as amended, empowers the Executive Ethics Commission and the Executive Inspector General with the jurisdiction over sexual harassment cases for local elected officials. There was nobody that would hear a sexual harassment case on a local elected official. We have negotiated this bill a number of times and I believe we have a product here that everyone has agreement with.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Link.

Thank you, Mr. President. As this is amended, provides that county board members or any elected officer of a unit of local government cannot receive a salary or any other compensation if the member or elected officer is receiving benefits from IR -- IMRF pension for service as a county board member or elected officer. If the county board or a member of the elected officer is receiving a pension -- benefits effective from this bill… I know of no opposition to the bill right now, but be more than happy to answer any questions.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Any discussion? Senator Schimpf, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates he will yield.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Link.

Thank you, Senator. How we changed it is, Senator Curran brought it up in committee and talked about it, that it is happening in local government also, municipalities. So we added every elected official under -- under this if it's the same unit of government. So, if you're a county board member and you're serving on the county board, you cannot receive a pension from the county board. Same goes for the municipal officer, could not receive it from the municipal unit of government. But you can do it if you were the opposite way. If a -- a -- a municipal employee runs for the county board, they could receive their benefits from the municipality. So it's not prohibiting you from going to other offices. What it's prohibiting of is to collect it from the same unit of government while you're collecting a salary.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Schimpf.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Link. 29  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

…is correct.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Schimpf.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Link.

Well, let me put it in this {sic} terms. I'm eligible for a pension from the State. If I were to say, "Okay, I do not want to contribute to the pension anymore, but I want to collect my pension" and still was serving in the General Assembly, I think that people would be a little upset because of -- it'd basically be doubling my salary, and I don't think that's the intent of it. The intent is -- and it -- and the reason we're doing this is, in my home county of Lake County, they're the ones that are abusing this right now. You had a number of elected officials on the county board serving as county board members and receiving a pension plus their salary at the same time.

Thank you, Mr. President. Previously, the Uniform Distribution of Unclaimed Property Act exempted public retirement systems from its provision -- provisions. However, the new Revised Uniform Unclaimed Property Act does not contain an exemption for public retirement systems. Under IRS rules and regulations, money in SRS cannot leave the trust to revert back to the State. So, thus, Senate Bill 1264 represents an agreement between the State Treasurer's Office to allow SURS and other public retirement 35  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 systems to report amounts of unclaimed property without turning over assets to the State. As a result, it allows a public retirement system to comply with IRS rules and regulations by keeping assets in their respective trusts by simultaneously helping to connect system members with unclaimed property through annual reporting requirements. I -- I know of no opposition, but I'd like -- I would like to say, this is a bill that will be amended in the House and come back because there are other retirement systems that want to be added on. There is language that is being worked out with the -- with the Treasurer's Office and some of these other systems and I'm sure that we can reach a -- a resolution in the House. Again, there's no opposition, though, to this bill. I ask for an Aye vote.

Senator, it's my understanding that school districts and school boards are already allowed to make the decision to combine administrative efforts. And I know in my district and your district as well, this initiative has already been done. So can you explain the need to have this piece of -- legislation specifically that bypasses school boards, local officials that have been elected?

While I appreciate the Senator's efforts to -- to lower costs in our school districts, however, there -- this is very -- a very concerning bill. Again, we -- we vote for local school boards to make these decisions and this completely bypasses their authority to allow it to go to a referendum. We are -- it's a low percentage, .2, that needs for this referendum to pass and a lot of these votes are going through during a municipal election, where we're having very low voter turnout. Again, while I can appreciate what the - - the Senator is -- is trying to do, I urge a No vote on this piece of legislation.

Yes, we had a very good discussion about this in committee and I have some concerns as well, but I'm going to vote for this because I think that I see this as a prototype of what we need to do with all of our State park system. And I just remind everybody in the Chamber here that we did talk about coming back with a resolution and asking DNR to study this and to come up with a policy that we might adopt that would do something for all of the State parks. So I think this is a work in progress.

Thank you, Mr. President. I just want to start by thanking Senator Harmon. He has a bill, Senate Bill 1522, that we worked together. They covered similar topics, so this was a -- a solution to address both bills into one. There may be some more work on Senate Bill 1522, but, for now, this is -- there's no opposition to this bill. It provides that if a company fails to provide information as demanded pursuant to the Section - and this is regarding L -- LLCs - then the person entitled to the -- the request may file an action to compel the -- the company to provide the information and the company may be liable for reasonable costs and attorney fees incurred. It also clarifies that a member of a limited liability company may be liable for its wrongful acts or omissions, even when acting on behalf of the LLC.

Thank you very much, Mr. President. As you know, this is Construction Zone Work Week, so I find it fitting that I'm running this bill now. This is a bill to handle increasing fines and penalties for going into a construction zone. And last year alone, we averaged about fifty-three hundred traffic accidents in construction zones.

We put the oversight under the Department of Public Health. That wasn't the proper place to put it. We thought it was IEMA; they didn't like it. So what we did was create our own Act called the Dense Breast Tissue Act to oversee the -- the services that are provided by and the notifications required by mammography -- providers.

Thank you, Mr. President and Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate. Senate Bill 1510, as amended, requires a nursing home to obtain written informed consent from a resident before administering psychotropic medication; and, two, it seeks to -- enforcement of penalties for noncompliance of staffing ratios set in current law. The reason that I'm sponsoring this bill, it came to my attention in an article in the Chicago Tribune, dated September 2018. There was a study conducted, along with the Kaiser Health News, documented the urgent need for safeguards against nursing home understaffing. "In Illinois, about six thousand nursing home residents a year who were hospitalized had sepsis" - - "sepsis, and one in five didn't survive…" Let that sink in - twenty percent of Illinois nursing home residents who enter a hospital die due to the infection acquired in their nursing home. That is why and that is what this bill is about, to seek to rectify that problem. I am open for any questions. I'm sure I have many. But I welcome any questions.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Any discussion? Senator Syverson, what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins.

Hello? Okay. That is correct. They can go in, administer fines, but the fines that they have now are just a slap on the wrist. And so it's just a cost of doing business. But let me go back. I'm glad you asked about the slow payments and the funding. First of all, this bill is not about funding and levels of service. 70  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 This is not the bill. That discussion is going to take place because the nursing homes are at the table now, asking for an increase in a bed tax. I was at the negotiation in 2010. I fought for the increase with the bed tax and also -- but let me just go back to this slow pay argument that you're making. While Medicaid payments are slightly delayed at the -- at the Comptroller, they have improved the past few years after the impasse ended; however, the majority of payments from the Comptroller are made to the managed care providers, who then disburse it to the nursing homes. The longer delay often occurs there, not with the State. But as you mentioned the slow pay, let me -- just to remind you, slow pay is not a good reason to neglect patients. And not only that, let me remind you, Senator Syverson - I'm so glad you asked about this issue of slow payment getting to the nursing homes - as you recall, and maybe you don't, I just want to bring it back to your memory, in 2017, the Senate acted to end the two-year budget impasse by passing a budget and revenue package that provided desperately needed revenue to the State to end deficit spending that reached over six billion in both fiscal year '16 and '17. That package received one single Republican vote and that vote was not yours. Without the enactment of that package, the bill backlog would have ballooned to over twenty billion and payments to providers, such as nursing homes, would have been extremely delayed. For you to stand up and argue about the delay of the payments, I think you - - it's a little bit ironic and hypocritical since you didn't vote to allow the passage of a bill that would ensure that the revenue got to the nursing homes.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Syverson. 71  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Holmes, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

To the bill, Mr. President.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

I just want to say, as our population ages and many people have to make the decision of possibly having their parents put 73  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 into a nursing home and under that care, it's obviously a very emotional decision. It's a decision no one has to want to make. You wish you could take care of your parents yourself. However, if you're forced into that position, you're entrusting their care to a nursing home and you expect them to be provided for. You don't expect there to be abuse or neglect. And when you look at the numbers, it's absolutely staggering. Do I understand that fiscally it's difficult to have to pay for this care? Absolutely. But I don't sit there and I think, oh, my gosh, if it is your parents, are you going to sit there and weigh out a nursing home trying to save a few pennies here or a few pennies there or the care of your loved one that raised you? I want to thank Senator Collins for bringing this bill. I think it's a very important piece of legislation. I urge everybody, put yourself in this position and, please, vote with what you would want to be happening to your loved ones if you were in this situation. Thank you.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Castro, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

Question to the sponsor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

Senator Collins, does this bill increase staffing ratios or it just merely allows the Department to enforce the current law?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins.

Thank -- thank you, Senator Castro. I'm so glad you asked 74  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 that question. This is not changing law. This is already law put in place in 2010, when I voted to -- for the staffing ratios, plus voted for increasing the bed tax. So this does not change any staffing ratios. We're only asking them to abide by the law as it is.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Castro.

To the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

I urge Members of the Chamber to really think about this, and as the previous speaker said, when it's your own parent that you are putting in a nursing home or entrusting in the care, to put - - to assign a dollar amount is very hard. You obviously want them to have the best care. You also entrust a facility to make sure they're receiving the proper care. In many of the reports and many of the -- the articles that were written by the Chicago Tribune, that was not the case. I currently have a friend who is in a nursing home and I can tell you how many times I get texted from him or his family because he doesn't feel safe. And if he doesn't feel safe at that institution, then how many other institutions are not following those rules? So I urge an Aye vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins, to close.

Thank you. In closing, let me just address, penalties are not a given. Don't underserve and overmedicate your residents, 75  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 there won't be any fines. And we're only asking that nursing homes to follow the law. If they do that, there will be no penalties. So, in closing, let me just say, Illinois nursing home residents are our society's most frail citizens and your constituents. They have lost the ability to independently care for themselves. These are your parents; your grandparents; people with disabilities; people who have spent many decades caring for us, our cities, our State, and our nation. The nursing home residents are our distinguished veterans, first responders, teachers, leaders, and people who have made our lives better in some way as we stand here now. Their contributions to Illinois and our society are immeasurable. They have earned the right to live in a safe, secure nursing home setting that properly cares for them to live the remainder of their lives in dignity, not in unspeakable pain from bedsores and infections and not in sedation. Why is that? As -- why is it that, as in 2010, we tend to turn a blind eye to abuse until the media shine a light on the conditions that continue to deprive our elders of their dignity. Yet, today, the Chicago Tribune reports "staffing levels for nurses and aides in Illinois nursing homes are among the lowest in the country". I have heard said that it is too costly to enforce the already existing law. Let me just stop. I hear a lot of noise. May I ask for -- this is important to me, if not to you. I have heard said…

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Please keep the noise down.

…that it is too costly to enforce the already existing law. Tell that to the families who have lost loved ones because nursing homes failed to be penalized for poor care. This bill does not 76  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 penalize those who uphold the law. To blame late State payments for the poor quality of care does not justify allowing our seniors, the disabled, our mentally ill, and loved ones to sit for hours in their feces and urine and develop infections, bed sores, and sepsis. They deserve better and we can do better. Yes, please vote Yes on this bill and help those who have lost the ability to care for themselves and to fight for themselves. I ask for a Yes vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Majority Leader Lightford.

Thank you, Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen of the committee {sic}. The Treasurer -- the State Treasurer brought up a wonderful opportunity to allow us to assist our higher education students with expenses. What Senate Bill 1542 {sic} do, it is to invest up to five percent, or six hundred million, of the State's Investment Portfolio in education finance products. This will help Illinois students finance higher education expenses, earning a competitive return for the State portfolio while investing in students and contributing to economic development. This will strengthen the State's Investment Portfolio by increasing diversification and the State's risk-adjusted rate of return. The State Treasurer is our State chief investment officer. He invests more than thirty-two billion on behalf of the State, its municipalities and constituents. The impact investment offers a beneficial rate of return while also helping Illinois citizens. The Treasurer already manages impact investments in agriculture and technology. And finally, Senate Bill 1524 allows the Treasurer to invest a small portion of the State portfolio to meaningfully 79  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 assist students while fulfilling his fiduciary responsibilities as the State CIO.

Thank you, Mr. President. Sorry, I feel like this is -- we're having a difficult education day. But I understand, again, that -- what the sponsor is trying to do. Speech is a very important topic. Currently, there are no requirements; however, speech is found in our State mandates -- or our State standards. Here's the issue with this bill. They are telling us that speech has to be a part of fine arts, foreign language, vocational classes. And while we can mandate that here -- that here at the K through 12 level, colleges will not accept that speech is a fine art course. 89  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 So our kids can be in a senior year and find that they are short a credit. So, again, while I appreciate the importance of speech, higher ed will not allow speech to be included in the fine arts, so we are -- it will be either at the end of their senior years, they may find that they are short a credit or, again, we will have to somehow add another credit to the school day.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins.

Thank you, Mr. President. Senate Bill 1583 provides that in cases where an offender is in violation of probation, conditional discharge, or supervision and the underlying offense was for theft, retail theft, or possession of a controlled substance, an arrest warrant issued in Cook County shall remain active for no more than ten years. I know of no opposition and I ask for your support.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) 93  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Sponsor indicates she will yield.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins.

Yes, that's right.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins.

This is an initiative of the Cook County Sheriff's Department. What we find is that many individuals that have a clean record but still have these warrants that are over ten/twenty/thirty years, if they're stopped for, let's say, a moving violation, like on a vehicle, and the warrant is still current, they end up being penalized for that. So we're looking to mitigate the harmful effect when people have had a clean record for over ten years.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins.

If they've had a clean record since the offense.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Collins.

That's correct.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) No further discussion, Senator Collins, to close.

I'm so glad that you're concerned about what happens in Cook County, since this bill is just limited to Cook County and at the request of our sheriff, of the Cook County Sheriff. So I'm glad that you're concerned, but I think it's just old paper laying around and then if you've cleared -- surely shown that you've been without offense for that period of time, I don't think you should be held liable the rest of your life. So I just ask for a Yes vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) 3rd Reading. Mr. Secretary, read the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Bush.

Thank you, Mr. President. Last year, the Senate (Sexual) 97  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Discrimination and Harassment -- Harassment Awareness and Prevention Task Force heard testimony from plaintiffs in the Ford Motor Company sexual harassment litigation, who described incidents of continuing sexual harassment by coworkers and union representatives because their employer failed to take corrective action, law enforcement declined to act, and the harassing conduct did not meet the factual requirements for obtaining a protective order under current Illinois law. Illinois does not follow a number of other states that criminalize harassment broadly. SB 1588 is intending not to criminalize such conduct but to provide a remedy for victims when needed. Women are often forced to orient their schedules and plans to account for public harassment, from changing a walking route to shelling out the money for an Uber to canceling evening plans altogether, ensuring that inequality pervades quite literally every aspect of day-to-day life for women. In order to continue the cultural shift away from this behavior, there needs to be remedies available for victims of sexual harassment, and not just in the workplace. While a recent shift in attitude about sexual harassment offers reason for optimism, harassment largely remains embedded in marginalized people's everyday life experiences and it will remain so until we adequately address it with our legal system. SB 1588 is intended to create a new civil remedy, called the sexual harassment no contact order, for cases where relief is unavailable under any other existing protective order. I know of no opposition to the bill, but I -- I do want to indicate that in committee some of my counterparts on the other side of the aisle had some questions and some suggestions where they thought the bill might be improved. I'm not in agreement with the language that they sent to me at this point, 98  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 but I want them to know that I'm happy to continue to -- the work on that once it goes over to the House and -- and -- and see what we can do to address their concerns. Happy to answer any questions.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Bush, to close.

Thank you, Senator, and -- and thank you, Senator Tracy. I would like to make a few comments. And, look, I'm -- I'm not generally one who calls on timelines, but I didn't hear any objections until yesterday. And -- and, frankly, I -- I do want to deal with those objections. I did get an e-mail with two suggestions that, for me, were not someplace that I felt I was 101  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 ready to go yet. There are discussions that are going to continue. But I want to be clear about this. Sexual harassment is not okay. And I think it's insulting to say that our judges can't make a determination when this is a conduct, when this is a -- a behavior that is ongoing. This has to go to a judge to get this order. This is not something that someone can just, you know, make that decision, obviously, on -- on their own. But I think it's time that we understand that we are responsible for our actions. And, frankly, if you're catcalling every day to a woman that is walking by and feels threatened by you or a man that is walking by or someone who their gender is being called in question, I think they have a right to be able to go to the system and say, "Is this okay? Because if it's not, I want an order of protection. I want to make sure that that person can't come near me." And I think that is something we need to do. I'm going to ask for an Aye vote. I appreciate my colleagues over there and, you're right, I've spent two years of my life doing this work. I'm proud of it. I'm proud with all of you that I've worked with on the other side of the aisle and I am so proud of the changes that we have made in the State of Illinois, but there is more work to be done. I'm going to ask for your Aye vote. I'm going to ask those of you on the other side of the aisle that know that I stand by my word that I will continue to do the work to vote Aye today and to trust our justice system to make the determination on whether harassment has gone too far and has become something that we need to legally say to someone, "What you're doing isn't right. Stop it", and protect the victim. So I would kindly ask you to consider that. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. President. Senate Bill 1641 attempts to reduce the high rates of hunger on college campuses, as almost half of all college students say that they suffer from food insecurity. This bill is attempting to lower the rates of hunger by -- notifying students who could possibly be eligible for SNAP benefits. The process would be simple. ISAC would flag students who, based on their FAFSA information, may qualify for SNAP benefits. Then the college or university would notify the student that may be eligible for SNAP. This can be done simply -- simply slipping a piece of paper into a student's financial aid package. The student would still have to apply for SNAP benefits, but this -- this bill would let them know that they are eligible. It passed unanimous out of committee and I urge a Yes vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Aquino.

Thank you, Mr. President. This bill would encourage more evidence-based policy making in Illinois. It will facilitate research on economic and social policies by exempting compensation provided as part of a research pilot from -- from counting towards eligibility -- eligibility towards SNAP, TANF, childcare, or medical assistance. This will make it -- this -- without this protection, people will be hesitant to participate in research pilots because they may be at risk of losing eligibility to these programs. The bill would not impose new costs on the State. It's zero dollars to GRF. And I would answer any questions. Know of no opponents and ask for an Aye vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) There any discussion? Senator Righter, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates he will yield. 120  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Aquino.

I would regard it as the following - this is the legislation, the text - notwithstanding any provisions of this Code, and to the maximum extent permitted by federal law, for purpose of determining eligibility and the amount of assistance under this Code, the Illinois Department, county departments and local government units shall exclude from consideration, for a period of no more than sixty months, any financial assistance, including wages, cash transfer, or gifts, that is provided to a person who is enrolled in a program or research project that is funded {sic} with general -- with general revenue funds and that is intended to investigate the impacts of policy or programs designed to reduce poverty, promote social mobility, or increase financial stability for Illinois residents if there is an explicit plan to collect data and evaluate the program or initiative that is developed prior to participants in the study being enrolled in the program and if a research team has been identified to oversee the evaluation. The Department shall choose State options and seek all necessary 121  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 federal approvals or waivers to implement this subsection. That is the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator -- no further discussion, Senator Aquino, to close.

This -- this bill is inspired by a potential influx of twenty million dollars that can come to the State of Illinois. It has no 122  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 impact on GRF. It's a private funder that wants to fund a -- a program, a pilot, so researchers can do their job at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign to do research to see if people can benefit -- if those that need most assistance can benefit from getting a basic income. Again, this is zero dollars of GRF. I ask for an Aye vote. Thank you.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) The question is, shall Senate Bill 1735 pass. All those in favor, vote Aye. Opposed, Nay. The voting is open. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Take the record. On that question, there are 35 voting Aye, 17 voting Nay, 0 voting Present. Senate Bill 1735, having received the required constitutional majority, is declared passed. Senate Bill 1746. Mr. Secretary, read the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Belt.

Thank you, Mr. President. Senate Bill 1746 provides that, for the purpose of creating or increasing a working cash flow {sic}, a school board may additionally include eighty-five percent of the most recent amount of the evidence-based funding received by the district in the aggregate calculation while -- when issuing bonds. Additionally, the bill allows the district to use the working cash flow for general purposes in anticipation of State funds. Mr. President, I -- the bill passed through committee 123  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 amended. I know of no opposition and I ask for all Ayes on this vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Is there any discussion? There being none, the question is, shall Senate Bill 1746 pass. All those in favor, vote Aye. Opposed, Nay. The voting is open.

Senate Bill 1746, having received the required constitutional majority, is declared passed. Senator Jones, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

Thank you, Mr. President. On Senate Bill 1735, I'd like to be recorded as a Yes, and also, on Senate Bill 1746, I'd like to be recorded as a Yes.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Record will reflect Aye votes. Senate Bill 1750. Mr. Secretary, read the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

Thank you, Mr. President. Senate Bill 1750 creates a new aggravated factor for the purposes of sentencing in cases where the defendant committed the offense of leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death and, at that time, was either driving 124  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 under the influence of alcohol or drugs or was using an electronic device. This passed out of committee unanimously. I'm aware of no opposition and I ask for a favorable vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Is there any discussion? Senator Castro, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

Question of the sponsor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

Senator Crowe, is this your first bill?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

Yes, ma'am, it is.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Castro.

So do you have opposition on this bill?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

There's no opposition.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Castro.

Can you carefully explain once again to this Chamber what does your bill do? 125  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I am happy to do so, Senator. This bill applies when a defendant has either been found guilty of leaving the scene of an accident causing death or has pled guilty to the same crime, and at that time, this would give the judge the option of exercising the ability to send them to prison.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Castro.

Well, since this is the Senator's first bill, I urge a No vote on this bill. I think it needs to still continue to be worked on. Thank you, Mr. President.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Schimpf, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

Thank you for the question, Senator. And, no, this is not a penalty enhancement. This simply allows a judge to impose a term 126  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 of imprisonment instead of probation when these specific factors apply.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Schimpf.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

Senator Schimpf, I am looking directly at you through the screen. I mean no disrespect.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Schimpf.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Murphy, for what purpose you seek recognition?

Question of the sponsor, Mr. President.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) 127  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Senator indicates she will yield.

Senator, I -- I know this is your first bill and I know it's a really serious topic, but could you tell us some of the ways that someone might leave the scene of an accident? I'm particularly concerned -- I heard some rumor that they go as the "crow" flies, so I wanted to make sure that that's not the case.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

Thank you and very cute. In -- in all -- in all seriousness, the bill stems from a case from Madison County State's Attorney's Office in which a driver fled the scene of a crime leaving a victim for six hours, after which he died.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Murphy.

…that -- that is very serious. But I'm glad we won't have to worry about you flying around, right, or leaving?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I'm here to stay, Senator. Thank you.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Murphy.

And welcome. We're excited to have you.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Hastings, for what purpose do you seek recognition? 128  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

Thank you, Mr. President. Question of the sponsor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

Senator Crowe, are you aware of the shoes that you're filling in the Illinois Senate?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I am.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Hastings.

…predecessor was renowned in knowing the law all the way back to the start of time. Are you similar to your predecessor?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I would never claim to be as knowledgeable in history as Senator Haine. However, in anticipation that sort of a question may arise today and having the background of being a lawyer and always wanting to be prepared, as this is bill 1750, I did pull a number of historical facts from the year 1750. I -- I did so in honor of my predecessor today. I'd be happy to share them with you now or, in the interest of the time on the Floor, I can give you a copy later.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Hastings. 129  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

I guess I'm interested more in your knowledge of the law. Is this a criminal or a civil law?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

This is a criminal law, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Hastings.

Are you aware of when the first signs in modern distinction between crimes of criminal and civil matters occurred?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I'm sorry to say that I'm not.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Hastings.

The difference between crimes and civil matters emerged during the Norman Conquest of 1066. Earliest criminal trials had are very little, if any, settled law to apply. Are you aware of that?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I am now, Senator. Thank you.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Hastings. 130  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

Although I miss your predecessor dearly - he was a very good man - I think you're a valued addition to the Senate. I really thank you for working with me on a lot of our bills and I look forward to you voting for some of mine in the near future.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Holmes, for what purpose you seek recognition?

Question of the sponsor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

Senator, are you aware that I tend to carry a lot of animal bills here in this Chamber?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

Senator, as I'm only a freshman, I -- I was not aware.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Holmes.

I -- I do and many of those are bills that affect cats. Very often when I'm carrying bills, particularly bills that relate to feral cat populations, I get an enormous pushback from the Audubon Society and other bird watchers, and I'm very concerned that from now on when I'm carrying bills that Senator Crowe is going to start championing this entire movement against me, every bill I carry. Do I have a commitment from you that you will try working with me on my animal bills? 131  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I will happily work with you on your animal bills.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Holmes.

…think you're going to be an absolutely fabulous addition to this Body. Welcome.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Jones, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

Question to the sponsor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

Now your bill is dealing with leaving the scene of a accident?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

That's correct, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Jones.

Okay -- okay, Senator Crowe, could you explain to me, on page 9, line 7, "the defendant committed the offense of promoting juvenile prostitution, patronizing a prostitute", what does that have to do with leaving the scene of a accident?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) 132  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Senator Crowe.

Thank you, Senator. Those are actually existing aggravating factors by way of reference to show you that this is an additional aggravating factor to be added to the list.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Jones.

Could you explain that?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

Senator, as the law currently exists, there are numerous aggravating factors that may be considered at a sentencing hearing before a judge. This law simply adds an additional aggravating factor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Jones.

Okay, whatever that means. I urge a No vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Morrison, for what purpose you seek recognition?

Question of the sponsor.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

Senator, if I ask you a question, will you become aggravated?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) 133  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Senator Crowe.

Certainly not, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Morrison.

My question is about the accident that precipitated this legislation. It occurred where?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

In Madison County in my district.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Morrison.

Can you be more specific than that?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I believe it occurred within the city limits of Collinsville.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Morrison.

Did it occur on the bridges of Madison County?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

It did not, Senator. It occurred on a roadway.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) 134  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Senator Morrison.

Thank you very much. I look forward to many years of working with you, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) President Cullerton, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

Yes, would the sponsor yield?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Sponsor indicates she will yield.

Senator, are you familiar with the -- the procedure called a motion to reconsider a bill after it's passed?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe.

I believe I'm going to be very shortly.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) President Cullerton.

Well, it's simply if -- if anybody who votes on the prevailing side, if you have second thoughts after they vote, they can just file a motion to reconsider and then we can have another debate on the same bill. So, if you're interested, there's a lot of people here would like to file that motion.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) Senator Crowe, to close.

135  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Thank you, Mr. President. In all seriousness, this bill does not suggest a new crime. It's simply an aggravating factor for a judge to exercise when considering cases with these specific fact patterns. As a matter of public policy, we should discourage drivers from leaving the scenes of accidents, and I ask for a favorable vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR MUÑOZ) The question is, shall Senate Bill 1750 pass. All those in favor, vote Aye. Opposed, Nay. The voting is open. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator McConchie. SENATOR McCONCHIE: Thank you, Mr. President. Right now, if a student goes and buys school lunch and the school provides that lunch, there's no sales tax that is applied to that; however, if the school does not have a cafeteria or it's too small to be able to provide lunch and they have to bring in an outside vendor and the students pay that 136  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 vendor directly, they have to pay sales tax. This simply makes sure that no matter where the source of a child's breakfast or lunch at school comes from that they don't have to pay sales tax on it. This is agreed language with the Department of Revenue. Be happy to answer any questions.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you, Senator. Is there any discussion? Seeing none, the question is, shall Senate Bill 1755 pass. All those in favor, vote Aye. Opposed, Nay.

Mr. Secretary, have there been any Floor amendments approved for consideration?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Morrison, on your amendment.

I ask for the adoption of the amendment and discussion on 3rd.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Morrison moves for the adoption of Floor Amendment No. 2 to Senate Bill 1778. All in favor, say Aye. Opposed, Nay. The Ayes have it. The amendment's adopted. Have there been any further Floor amendments approved for consideration?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) 3rd Reading. Now on 3rd Reading, Senate Bill 1778. Mr. Secretary, please read the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Morrison.

Thank you, Mr. President, Members of the Senate. This bill, as amended, reorganizes and clarifies the list of individuals who are mandated reporters who are required to immediately report to the Department of Children and Family Services when they have reasonable cause to believe that a child may be abused and neglected and it clarifies certain gray areas in the law that has left children in danger. The bill also requires mandated reporters to undergo some type of training so that they better understand their role and can better recognize signs of abuse and neglect. We have received a lot of feedback from stakeholders and we have done a -- the best we could to ensure that this training would not be burdensome and would be done as efficiently as possible. In Human Services Committee, we did discuss how we were going to make accommodations for the medical profession since they currently undergo so much continual education and that medical school does teach mandated reporting. I also want to assure all the Senators here this evening that we did listen to feedback from other stakeholders too. We made changes to the original language after hearing from the State Police so that they could incorporate this requirement into their current training procedures. We listened to the points of educational groups and made their requested changes as well. I know very well that not everyone is going to be satisfied with this bill, but this is a matter that I take very 139  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 seriously. I have worked for two years with many stakeholders on this, and at the end of the day, the intent of this bill is to protect children. In 2017, there were thirty thousand reported victims of child abuse and neglect in Illinois. This doesn't even touch on the number of countless other children who were abused and neglected and no one reported it. This is very important for the State of Illinois. I would be happy to answer any questions.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you, Senator. Is there any discussion? Senator Righter, for what purpose do you rise?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) The sponsor indicates that she'll yield. Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Morrison.

140  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Correct.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Morrison.

Senator Righter, you're asking me to make an accommodation in the responsibility for a mandated reporter. The accommodation I made to the medical professionals were on the timing of their training. That's a total -- totally separate issue. I do understand your concerns. I have listened to them. I appreciate you talking to me about it. Under current law today, clergy members are already mandated reporters. This bill requires them to report the same type of abuse as the rest of every other mandated reporter. Forty other states already do this and have this same 141  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 requirement. I also want to remind the Body that based on reported numbers, a child in Illinois is five times more likely to be neglected than sexually abused. Neglect is a very serious issue. We're not talking about a dirty house or macaroni and cheese every night or letting your kids run alone in the backyard. It is incredibly serious. Seventy-five percent of the child abuse and neglect victims die from neglect. So the answer is, no, I am not willing to accept your offer.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Righter.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you, Senator. Senator Morrison, to close.

I'd like to thank Senator Righter, and I do mention his name in case he has another question. The clerical privilege that exists now will continue to exist, as it does in only ten other states in the United States. A confession made to a pastor or a priest would still not be admissible or allowable to -- to make a mandated report with. I ask for the Body's consent on this and would appreciate a Aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. President. Senate Bill 1805 would actually authorize downstate transit agencies to use a two-phase design- build selection method for transit projects. If you're still listening, what that does… Well -- well, basically what we're trying to do is -- is recognize that downstate transit agencies have their own issues they're trying to deal with that are unique 147  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 to downstate communities. This is a initiative of the Champaign- Urbana Mass Transit District. It still needs a little bit of work. Anytime there's a design element, of course, there's a little bit of territory to discuss with architects and others. And so I think we're at a point where we'd like to get it passed to the House. I've talked to the House sponsor. We've agreed to hold it until some more meetings can be -- can be had to reach an agreed bill, and I've got that -- that agreement with the House sponsor. But I'd ask just for your Aye vote to get it out today.

As amended, this bill expands the eligibility of MAP recipients for one additional year to include students who have received bachelor degrees but enroll in an educator preparation program and teach - - and agree to teach in Illinois for three out of the next five years. These students are only eligible to receive MAP for one additional academic year.

I would ask for an Aye vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Schimpf.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator DeWitte. SENATOR DeWITTE: Senator, at this point, I would prefer to roll this bill forward.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Schimpf.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator DeWitte. SENATOR DeWITTE: Like Senator Crowe, I was looking you in the eye on the television screens, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Fowler.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator DeWitte. SENATOR DeWITTE: Thank you for your question, Senator. I think we -- we've reached an agreement to disagree on this particular aspect. They were concerned about the clawback provision that's contained in 154  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 this legislation - if someone who did receive a fifth-year grant did not serve the three years that they had committed to in exchange for the additional fifth year of a grant. ISAC was concerned about the clawback provision. We modified it to try to get them to at least neutral on this bill, to allow for a staggered three-part repayment program for each year that they may not meet their requirement pursuant to receiving that fifth-year grant. Frankly, sir, I think we agreed to disagree, and that's where we've left it.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Fowler.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator DeWitte. SENATOR DeWITTE: It's a requirement to payback any money that may have been received that is not -- reciprocated in a return commitment to the State.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Manar.

Thank you, Mr. President. This bill has many parts. The intention of this bill is to try to bring together several provisions that would change current law to address the teaching shortage in the State, which, of course, is more profound in some parts of the State than others. But I want to go through those provisions very quickly. First, the bill reinstates the six percent cap for salary increases for teachers to be covered by TRS. That number was moved down to three percent several years ago -- excuse me, this past year. This bill would move it back to six percent for the threshold for school districts to pay a penalty to TRS. Number two, it removes the requirement of teachers to pass a basic skills test in order to achieve admission into schools of education and eventually licensure. Number three, it removes the prohibition for student teachers to be paid while they're student teaching. And Number four, it allows for the refund of the cost of the edTPA test, which is a three-hundred-dollar fee paid directly to Pearson's, subject to appropriation, of course, 175  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 for teachers who teach in Tier 1 school districts. I'll be happy to take any questions.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you, Senator. Is there any discussion? Senator Oberweis, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Sponsor indicates he'll yield. Senator Oberweis.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Manar.

It's a bit of a tricky question. The answer is nothing because the payment was certified prior to the enactment of the law. So there was no savings achieved in the budget this year for that lowering of the threshold for the penalty from six to three percent.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Oberweis.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Manar.

No, I -- I wouldn't and I'll tell you why. First of all, my -- my officemate and my seatmate is not the sponsor of the bill. I am. We haven't had this conversation until this moment on the Floor of the Senate. This bill was filed months ago. We've had 177  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 debate. And I want to tell you about the world that I live in and the school districts that I represent in Springfield, in the central part of the State, where the lowering of the threshold from six to three percent has been detrimental to any number of issues when it deals with the teaching profession and getting teachers into the classroom, in addition to teachers sponsoring things like student council or being a coach or taking on extra duties, which makes it a penalty when it comes to the provision that was passed. So, the unfunded liability of the pension systems is not going to be impacted by this bill because it's going to be paid either by the local district or by the State budget. So this doesn't change unfunded liability for the Teachers' Retirement System. It just changes who pays for it under certain circumstances. The budget that we passed presumes -- presumes a change that was not enacted. So, by lowering -- or, excuse me, raising the threshold to six percent, it doesn't have an impact on either the budget or the unfunded liability.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Oberweis.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Manar.

Senator Oberweis, maybe you have the bill. I mean, has -- have you filed the bill that you just described? That's not this bill. This bill reverts the law back to what it was before the change. That's what I'm seeking. That's what I'm asking approval from the Body. If you want to file that bill that you just described, I would urge you to do it. And I'm sure that the -- the gracious Chair of the Senate Education Committee would give you a hearing, and a -- a fair hearing, and we could have a debate. This bill is about reverting the law back to what it was before the change. I firmly believe the change was detrimental to the profession. I think it had a much more profound impact than we thought it would and that's why I'm asking that we go back to the way it was before the change. That doesn't mean we can't go in a different direction in the future, but that's not what I'm asking for today.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) 179  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Senator Oberweis, do you have another question?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Oberweis.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Manar.

I -- I -- I -- with all due respect, Senator, I think I answered your question. You and I have not had this conversation until this moment. We've had multiple hearings on this bill. It was valued in the budget when it was passed at about twenty million dollars in a multibillion-dollar pension system. If that's something that you think is -- should be a debate -- debated topic here, I would urge you to file the bill and let's have that debate. I think the change was detrimental to the profession. I think it had more of an impact on underfunded districts than overfunded 180  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 districts, and there's great disparity in the State. But, I don't think there's anything wrong with standing up and saying, "You know what? This wasn't the right thing to do", and that we should go back to the system that we had and we should work from that point forward.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Fowler, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you. Senator Manar, to close.

Thank you, Mr. President. I appreciate this debate. I want to remind the Body that last year we -- we took -- we took steps forward that was -- were things that I would describe as low- hanging fruit to address the teacher shortage. This one has a little more meat on the bone, but I think this is a necessary step. Beyond just the salary cap provisions, there are good things in this bill that come from teachers. The ideas in this bill came from teachers through the Senate Education Committee, through conversations that many Members on both sides of the aisle have had, and that's what this is designed to address. And I would respectfully ask for an Aye vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) The question is, shall Senate Bill 1952 pass. All those in favor, vote Aye. Opposed, Nay. The voting is open. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Take the record. On that question, there are 51 voting Aye, 5 voting No, none voting Present.

Senate Bill 1966. Senator Sims. Senate Bill 1969. Senator Sims. Senate Bill 1970. Mr. Secretary, please read the bill.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Sims.

Thank you, Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate. Senate Bill 1966 {sic} allows for students who are eligible to vote but who are high school students to be able to vote during school hours. We are trying to make sure that… 1970?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) I'm…

We okay?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) …sorry, Senator. We had to get -- make sure the record caught up with -- with your presentation. So we -- we now have Senate Bill 1970 correctly in the record. Senator Sims, please continue.

Thank you, Mr. President. I had -- I had this -- this wonderfully insightful debate starting and going in presentation. But, again, Senate Bill 1970 allows for students who are high 183  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 school students but who are eligible to vote to be able to do so during school hours. We are trying to make sure that we encourage our young people to participate in our -- in our -- in our -- and -- and -- exercise their civic -- their civic duty and this bill will allow them to do that. Again, I know of no opposition and would ask for a favorable roll call.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you, Senator. Is there any discussion? Senator Rose, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Sims indicates he'll yield for a question. Senator Rose.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Sims.

Senator Rose, we -- that is not -- that's not included in this version of the legislation, but that's certainly something we could -- we can consider -- consider in the House.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Rose.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Sims, to close.

Thank you, Mr. President, and I appreciate my colleague's perspective and position. What we are trying to encourage is our young people to participate in their government. If you -- and what we heard from young people who -- who presented on this bill and -- during the Senate Executive Committee was that if they did not have the opportunity with this -- to -- to vote during school hours, having civic -- civics teachers who would talk to them about the importance of voting, they may not have voted. There was one young lady who had a very compelling story, where she talked about the fact that she did not have access to a ride. And the -- and because her -- her parent could not get her to school -- or help her get to -- get -- get to the polling place, she would not have exercised her franchise. What we are trying to do is encourage young people to participate. We are trying to encourage them and make it easier, not more difficult, for them to vote. So I -- I -- again, I would respectfully ask Members of the Senate to approve Senate Bill 1970. Thank you, Mr. President.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you, Senator. The question is, shall Senate Bill 1970 pass. All those in favor, vote Aye. Opposed, Nay.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Aquino, on your bill.

Thank you, Mr. President. As most of you may remember, this is a bill actually we had last Session. Passed it out of both Chambers with bipartisan support. But then the -- the then Governor did an amendatory veto that removed a provision that we agreed with with the Department of Corrections that allowed for a one -- page with information about their voting rights be included in the checklist of documents they would get upon release. So we're back again this year to attempt to move this important legislation forward. Senate Bill 2090 would require county jails and local election authorities to collaborate in creating a process to facilitate voting. In especially large counties, those with populations more than three million would be able to establish a temporary polling place in county jails. Counties under three million would establish a vote by mail or absentee -- absentee voting program. But in all cases, counties would have local control to determine the best approach that works for them. Senate 198  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 Bill 2090 creates a floor that requires a process to facilitate voting. There are seven counties already that have the program. Champaign County became the eighth during the primary. I ask -- I will take questions, but I ask for a favorable vote.

There -- there are -- there are no opponents to this bill. This is a bill that was worked on with -- that I know of actually. I don't know if there's any opponents. But, actually, I want to address something that the Senator said. I don't believe that anyone in this State should be disenfranchised to vote. And if he wants to cosponsor a bill this Session or the following year to require county clerks to make sure that every single person in this State, be it if you're awaiting trial in jail or in a nursing home or whatever, absolutely I -- I -- I -- either if he wants to champion it and -- and put himself as the -- the -- the lead sponsor and I'll be the co-chief, or we can do it vice versa. But I don't think that anyone in this State should be disenfranchised and not have the ability to vote. So I ask for an Aye vote. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. President. Senate Bill 2146, as amended, 205  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 requires the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to create a Clean Water Workforce Pipeline Program from appropriations from the Build Illinois Bond Fund, the Capital Development Fund, the General Revenue Fund, or other funds as identified by the Department. Proponents include the Sierra Club, Illinois Environmental Council, Laborers, Pipefitters, Local 150, American Council of Engineering Companies. I know of no opposition. This is subject to appropriations. I ask for an Aye vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you, Senator. Is there any discussion? Seeing -- oh, Senator Oberweis, for what purpose do you rise?

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Sponsor indicates he'll yield.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Villivalam.

Sure. So, again, this is subject to appropriations. The discussion that took place was creating this Clean Water Workforce Pipeline Program. Adequate funding for the program would be approximately five percent of the total amount of State support lent to clean water infrastructure. So, for -- for example, for 206  STATE OF ILLINOIS 101st GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 32nd Legislative Day 4/10/2019 an annual total State investment of a hundred million, far less than the total need in wastewater treatment upgrades, lead -- lead service line removal, stormwater and agricultural runoff, and invasive species control projects, five million would -- would annually be allocated to the program.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Oberweis.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Villivalam.

I think the -- the goal of this legislation is to work with the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to provide recruitment and access to people in brown, black, and rural communities that cannot necessarily access training facilities otherwise to make sure that they can be a part of this -- this workforce. And that's the way we drafted the bill and we wanted to work with the Department on it.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Oberweis.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) To the bill, Senator.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Thank you. Senator Villivalam, to close.

Yeah, that last part is not accurate. Again, this is subject to -- to appropriations. There's no opposition other than Senator Oberweis. It has support from business, labor, faith environmental groups. I ask -- respectfully ask for an Aye vote.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) The question is, shall Senate Bill 2146 pass. All those in favor, vote Aye. Opposed, Nay. The voting is open. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish?

Every odd-numbered year the Governor appoints four members to the State Board of Elections. That is to be done no later than April 1st and nominations from a State officer shall be submitted to the Governor no longer {sic} than March 1st. What we're doing with this bill is simply moving that date back to March {sic} (May) 15th for appointments to the State Board of Elections to give the incoming Governor more time to make these appointments. After this year, it reverts back to the original schedule. So, not very controversial. Be happy to answer any questions and ask for an Aye vote.
