Illinois Compiled Statutes
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide. Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

ARTICLE 21.1.
RESIDENTIAL PICKETING
|
720 ILCS 5/21.1-1
(720 ILCS 5/21.1-1) (from Ch. 38, par. 21.1-1)
Sec. 21.1-1.
Legislative finding and declaration.
The Legislature finds and declares that men in a free society have the
right to quiet enjoyment of their homes; that the stability of community
and family life cannot be maintained unless the right to privacy and a
sense of security and peace in the home are respected and encouraged; that
residential picketing, however just the cause inspiring it, disrupts home,
family and communal life; that residential picketing is inappropriate in
our society, where the jealously guarded rights of free speech and assembly
have always been associated with respect for the rights of others. For
these reasons the Legislature finds and declares this Article to be
necessary.
