Rep. Patrick Windhorst

Amends the Firearm Concealed Carry Act. Eliminates a provision that provides a person licensed to carry a concealed handgun shall not knowingly carry a firearm on any bus, train, or form of transportation paid for in whole or in part with public funds, or any building, real property, and parking area under the control of a public transportation facility paid for in whole or in part with public funds.

Amends Rule 42. Provides that No more than 25 bills and resolutions (rather than 80 bills and resolutions) shall be listed in the 3 orders of business listed on the Consent Calendar. Provides that a bill or resolution may be placed on the Consent Calendar by report of a standing committee or special committee upon a motion made only for that purpose that is adopted by a unanimous vote of the members present (rather than a motion adopted by a unanimous vote of the members present). Specifies that a deadline established under Rule 9 for Third Reading and passage shall not apply to bills that remain pending on the Consent Calendar on the date of the deadline.

Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Provides that the driver's license of any person convicted of engaging in a street sideshow shall be revoked in the manner provided by the Code. Provides that every person convicted of engaging in a street sideshow shall be guilty of aggravated engaging in a street sideshow if the person, in committing the violation, was involved in a motor vehicle crash that resulted in great bodily harm or permanent disability or disfigurement to another, where the violation was a proximate cause of the injury. Provides that aggravated engaging in a street sideshow is a Class 4 felony for which the defendant, if sentenced to a term of imprisonment, shall be sentenced to not less than one year nor more than 12 years.

Maddy summaryHB 1489 makes a minor technical correction to the short title citation of Illinois' Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. It updates Section 100-1 to correctly state the law "may be cited as the 'Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963'" instead of using inconsistent phrasing. This is a purely administrative change to the law's reference language and does not alter any legal procedures, rights, or obligations. The bill has no substantive impact on citizens, courts, or law enforcement.

Maddy summaryHB 1493 makes a technical correction to the Illinois Prison Inspection Act's short title by removing an extra "the" in Section 1 (730 ILCS 135/1). It does not change any prison inspection procedures, oversight requirements, or affect any inmates, staff, or facilities. The bill is purely administrative, updating the act's official name to match standard legal formatting. This procedural change has no impact on criminal law enforcement, prison operations, or public policy. (1 sentence, as it is a purely technical procedural bill).

Amends Rule 66. Provides that a motion to adjourn for more than 3 days may be immediately placed on the Daily Calendar for consideration by the House (rather than considered and adopted by the House).

Amends Rule 59. Provides that a motion for the previous question is not debatable and requires either the unanimous consent of the members present or the affirmative vote of 60 members elected (now, a motion for the previous question is not debatable and requires the affirmative vote of 60 members elected). Provides that a record vote must be taken on the motion if unanimous consent has been denied. Prohibits this requirement from being suspended.

Maddy summaryHB 1490 makes a minor technical correction to the official citation of Illinois' Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, specifically updating how the code is referenced in legal documents. It does not change any substantive criminal law or create new requirements; it only adjusts the phrasing used in the short title section (Section 100-1) to match the correct legal format. This bill directly affects legal documents, court filings, and references to the code but has no practical impact on criminal procedures or public policy. The change is purely administrative, ensuring consistent citation of the existing law.

Maddy summaryHB 1487 is a technical correction to the short title of Illinois' Criminal Code of 2012. It modifies Section 1-1 of the code to fix redundant wording in its official citation ("the the Criminal Code" → "the Criminal Code"). The bill does not change any criminal laws, penalties, or procedures - only how the code is formally referenced in legal documents. It directly affects official court records, legal filings, and state publications that cite the Criminal Code. This is a procedural update with no substantive policy impact.

Maddy summaryHB 1488 is a technical correction bill that fixes a typographical error in the official short title of Illinois' Criminal Code of 2012. It changes the redundant phrase "the the Criminal Code" to simply "Criminal Code" in Section 1-1 of the law. This bill does not alter any substantive criminal law provisions or affect any individuals or groups. It is purely a procedural update to the law's citation format.
