Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance
10 ILCS 5/9-9.5


Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Election Code. Makes it unlawful to telephone or cause to be telephoned any paid message that expressly advocates the nomination, election, or defeat of a clearly identified State or local candidate without a specified disclosure of the message's sponsoring entity or responsible individual. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Applies the prohibition to pre-recorded messages (now, "matters").

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Requires that the message include, rather than be preceded by, the identifying information. Changes the penalty to a fine assessed by the State Board of Elections.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
Deletes reference to:
10 ILCS 5/9-9.5
Adds reference to:
10 ILCS 5/7-61from Ch. 46, par. 7-61
30 ILCS 500/20-160
30 ILCS 500/50-37

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. If and only if House Bill 723 of the 96th General Assembly becomes law, amends the Election Code. In the event a person is designated by a party nominating committee to fill a vacancy in nomination for a general election, requires that the person file the required candidate documents at the location otherwise required for filing documents with respect to the office sought (now, with the State Board of Elections), and requires that objections to the person’s nominating petitions be heard by the electoral board that otherwise has jurisdiction with respect to objections to nominating petitions for the office sought (now, heard by the State Board of Elections). Amends the Illinois Procurement Code. Makes changes with respect to pay-to-play provisions, including definitions and the deadlines for filing updated business entity registration information with the State Board of Elections. If and only if Senate Bill 51 becomes law, amends the Illinois Procurement Code. In the pay-to-play provisions, redefines the terms "affiliated person", "affiliated entity", and "executive employee". Effective January 1, 2010 in part and July 1, 2010 in part.
