Tango7 Posted July 12, 2017 at 10:03 PM Share Posted July 12, 2017 at 10:03 PM IL first had CCW with the Sadler Act of 1919, which allowed judges and magistrates to issue CCL's for cause. It was repealed in 1925. The first of more recent days was filed by Larry Wennlund ® New Lenox in 1993 with a companion bill in the Senate: HB-1558 WENNLUND - BRUNSVOLD. 430 ILCS 65/3.1 from Ch. 38, par. 83-3.1 Amends the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act.

Tribune staff writer Rick Pearson contributed to this article. SPRINGFIELD Gov. Jim Edgar all but promised Tuesday to veto a bill repealing local gun-control ordinances outside Chicago if fellow Republicans in the legislature approve the measure. Edgar said the state shouldn't take power away from local authorities. Referring to the bill, which also would prevent communities from approving new anti-gun laws tougher than state law, he said: "I think anyone who knows my position knows I'm not in favor of that bill. And I have a tendency usually to veto bills I don't like." The bill's sponsor, Rep. Larry Wennlund (R-New Lenox), stood only a few feet away as Edgar made his comments during a bill-signing of a modest anti-crime package. Even closer to Edgar was GOP House Speaker Lee Daniels of Elmhurst, who supports Wennlund's proposal. Despite Edgar's veto threat, Wennlund promised to keep pushing his bill. "It's an issue of law-abiding citizens being able to go from one part of the state to another to engage in a lawful activity," Wennlund said. "There's a need for uniformity. It's like all these home-rule cities having different traffic laws. Can you imagine what chaos that would be?" Wennlund's effort also is aimed at appeasing the Illinois State Rifle Association. A roll call vote on the bill would give the group a list of opponents to intimidate in the next legislative campaign. Though Daniels still supports the bill, his aides acknowledged that the measure would require 71 House votes for approval because it would supersede local home-rule powers. Earlier, Daniels said he was looking at requiring only a simple 60-vote majority. The dispute over gun control is not the first between legislative Republicans and Edgar. Last year, Edgar's proposed ban on assault weapons failed because of opposition from Senate President James "Pate" Philip (R-Wood Dale). Edgar compared Wennlund's bill to attempts by the federal government to "micromanage" state affairs. "When it comes to the issue of firearms, each community might have a better fix on what's best for their situations," he said. Suburban Morton Grove made history 14 years ago by becoming the first community in the country to ban handguns. Evanston, Wilmette, Oak Park and other towns across Illinois and the country have followed suit.

stm Posted July 13, 2017 at 02:26 PM Share Posted July 13, 2017 at 02:26 PM I wish we could see the text of the bill that Edgar vetoed. I thought I read here that it was a may-issue permit system. I could be completely wrong about this, but I thought it was brought up in discussion here during the Moore v. Madigan litigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottFM Posted July 29, 2017 at 01:52 PM Share Posted July 29, 2017 at 01:52 PM House has been D controlled since 1983 except for 2 years 1995-96. The Senate has been D controlled since 1975 except for the 10 years 1993 - 2002.So the answer is 1996 and 2002. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashdump Posted July 31, 2017 at 09:59 PM Share Posted July 31, 2017 at 09:59 PM Eventually.... (I remember all the people around here who said Illinois would never pass concealed carry...)Had it not been for the Mary Shepard ruling forcing the state's hand, I'd bet my paycheck that we still would not have a concealed carry law if we were waiting solely on the legislature. As we have also just discovered with the recent tax hike, there are plenty of republicans happy and willing to roll over and sell out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been able to find that bill. I do see where Governor Edgar threatened a veto but not the veto itself. I asked Larry Wennlund about it a couple years ago and he says the bill never got to the Governor's desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
