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.

regulation in Section 3-209 of the Department of Defense Directive 5500.07-R that offering group life insurance programs sponsored by a state military department, to the same extent and similar manner as the offering of the Servicemembers Group Life Insurance program, is not an endorsement of a non-federal entity in violation of said regulation.
    It is hereby the policy of the State of Illinois that members of the Illinois National Guard should be provided with the opportunity to purchase the Illinois National Guard State-Sponsored Life Insurance Program products as provided for in this Section and that the members be allowed to make an allotment for the payment of premiums using the U.S. Defense Finance and Accounting Service military pay allotment procedures in force at the time the allotment is requested.

The life insurance products provided by the National Guard Association of Illinois through its membership in the Militia Insurance Trust shall be known as the Illinois National Guard State-Sponsored Life Insurance Program.
