mauserme Posted November 13, 2018 at 01:13 AM Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 at 01:13 AM .Welcome to the 2018 Fall Veto Session. Today begins the first legislative week of two, scheduled before the end of the calendar year. When the Spring Session ended several bills had been recently passed. HB2354 Lethal Order of Protection started life as a horrible piece of legislation that was eventually negotiated to language on which we and the NRA took a neutral stance at various times through the process. HB4855 FOID - Renewal & Suspension, is a bill now allowing temporary suspension of FOID cards under circumstances that often required revocation, while bringing the definition of inpatient treatment into conformance with the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code. SB2640 State Police - Firearms, a bill we supported, allows retiring law enforcement to purchase their service firearms. SB3256 (72 Hour Wait), mandates a 72 hour wait for the purchase of all firearms, rather than only handguns. While an undesirable outcome on its surface, this successfully kept a definition of "assault weapon" out of Illinois statute, a result far more important than the waiting period. Finally, SB337 Gun Dealer Licensing passed both bodies as a replacement for SB1657 Gun Dealer Licensing which had been vetoed by Governor Rauner. The Governor promised to veto SB337 as well, once the bill is sent to him. Thank you Mr. Governor. It's been a difficult 4 years in many ways, but reassuring knowing an honorable man has been in the Executive office. In the coming week we will likely see action on SB2387 FOID Disposition - Affidavit, which we continue to oppose after the sponsor reneged on the agreement made during negotiations. It has been added to the House Calendar at third reading. If passed out of the House we will have an opportunity to fight it in the Senate. HJR142 Tree of Life Synagogue - Support will also be up. We'll list, too, a few bills that were either on concurrence or postponed during the Spring Session indicating a potential, but not necessarily an expectation, for action The House and the Senate are scheduled for 12:00 Noon today.
