In the House, SB1966 Fix the FOID Act was held on second reading, meaning if a new amendmnet does materialize, the bill is poised for that to be potentially adopted followed by a final action vote in quick succession.

House ran through all bills that were on third reading and then started HJRs in the late afternoon and early evening.

 

Not sure what the Senate did, was waiting for SB1966 to go to third reading, but remains at second reading.

I read that they might be working on SB1966 HCA 2 to reduce costs or develop their indigent wording. By now even the ILGA members know those promised trailer bills seldom appear.

Yes, we're hearing the vote is very close on this and some of the Black Caucus members are planning to jump ship and vote for it if the sponsor lowers the fee. If any IllinoisCarry members are represented by a Black Caucus rep., get on the phone with them now!

Rather than being on the order of 2nd reading, SB1966 was read a second time and held at second. So instead of waiting to be read a second time, moved to third reading and voted on the next day or after, this can be read the third time and be voted on all in the same day.
