Though many bills were moved from second to third reading in both bodies yesterday, the bills we're currently watching were not among them. Similarly, our lone resolution of interest remains on floor calendars unchanged from yesterday's session.

 

As a reminder, I have mid-day appointments that will keep me away from the forum during session today and tomorrow. Any help keeping track of new developments will be a greatly appreciated.

 

The House and Senate Senate are again scheduled for 12:00 Noon.

A newsletter I got this morning mentions HB-96, I don’t know if it is related to the ISRA alert, but I thought I would share it. It states :

 

FOID Cards may soon cost $200

 

We could see some major changes to the cost of getting a FOID card in the near future.

 

Heading into the last three weeks of session and anything can happen. Illinois HB-96. Rep. Willis has been working with anti-gunners to pass what they call FOID reform. What it really is, is gun control.

 

FOID would go up to $200 for first timers. Here is the breakdown of pricing.

+ Cut the FOID back to 5 years and making it $50, ($100 for the current 10 year).

+ The State Police can charge for the background check fee which is $32.50

+ Required fingerprints most vendors are charging $65-75 for live scan.

= $200 FOID card

 

It appears as Rep. Willis and others don’t want to have poor people be able to afford the right to self defense or enjoy the shooting sports.

 

We expect to see a new version of the FOID reform bill this week as the clock is ticking. For the time being, some big ticket items like magazine bans and semi-auto bans appear to be off the table.

 

With only three weeks left of session, you’ll want to contact your representatives today!”

Civil rights violation on so many levels (pricing a right out of affordability for some)
