SB2856- 4 -LRB100 17720 AXK 32893 b

1    (a) The General Assembly finds that a safe and civil school
2environment is necessary for students to learn and achieve and
3that bullying causes physical, psychological, and emotional
4harm to students and interferes with students' ability to learn
5and participate in school activities. The General Assembly
6further finds that bullying has been linked to other forms of
7antisocial behavior, such as vandalism, shoplifting, skipping
8and dropping out of school, fighting, using drugs and alcohol,
9sexual harassment, and sexual violence. Because of the negative
10outcomes associated with bullying in schools, the General
11Assembly finds that school districts, charter schools, and
12non-public, non-sectarian elementary and secondary schools
13should educate students, parents, and school district, charter
14school, or non-public, non-sectarian elementary or secondary
15school personnel about what behaviors constitute prohibited
16bullying.
17    Bullying on the basis of actual or perceived race, color,
18religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status,
19physical or mental disability, military status, sexual
20orientation, gender-related identity or expression,
21unfavorable discharge from military service, association with
22a person or group with one or more of the aforementioned actual
23or perceived characteristics, or any other distinguishing
24characteristic is prohibited in all school districts, charter
25schools, and non-public, non-sectarian elementary and
26secondary schools. No student shall be subjected to bullying:

 

 

SB2856- 5 -LRB100 17720 AXK 32893 b

1        (1) during any school-sponsored education program or
2    activity;
3        (2) while in school, on school property, on school
4    buses or other school vehicles, at designated school bus
5    stops waiting for the school bus, or at school-sponsored or
6    school-sanctioned events or activities;
7        (3) through the transmission of information from a
8    school computer, a school computer network, or other
9    similar electronic school equipment; or
10        (4) through the transmission of information from a
11    computer that is accessed at a nonschool-related location,
12    activity, function, or program or from the use of
13    technology or an electronic device that is not owned,
14    leased, or used by a school district or school if the
15    bullying causes a substantial disruption to the
16    educational process or orderly operation of a school. This
17    item (4) applies only in cases in which a school
18    administrator or teacher receives a report that bullying
19    through this means has occurred and does not require a
20    district or school to staff or monitor any
21    nonschool-related activity, function, or program.
22    (a-5) Nothing in this Section is intended to infringe upon
23any right to exercise free expression or the free exercise of
24religion or religiously based views protected under the First
25Amendment to the United States Constitution or under Section 3
26of Article I of the Illinois Constitution.

8    (g) Re-enactment; findings; purposes.
9        (1) The General Assembly finds and declares that:
10            (i) Section 50-5 of Public Act 88-680, effective
11        January 1, 1995, contained provisions amending the
12        child pornography statute, Section 11-20.1 of the
13        Criminal Code of 1961. Section 50-5 also contained
14        other provisions.
15            (ii) In addition, Public Act 88-680 was entitled
16        "AN ACT to create a Safe Neighborhoods Law". (A)
17        Article 5 was entitled JUVENILE JUSTICE and amended the
18        Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (B) Article 15 was entitled
19        GANGS and amended various provisions of the Criminal
20        Code of 1961 and the Unified Code of Corrections. (C)
21        Article 20 was entitled ALCOHOL ABUSE and amended
22        various provisions of the Illinois Vehicle Code. (D)
23        Article 25 was entitled DRUG ABUSE and amended the
24        Cannabis Control Act and the Illinois Controlled
25        Substances Act. (E) Article 30 was entitled FIREARMS
26        and amended the Criminal Code of 1961 and the Code of

 

 

SB2856- 27 -LRB100 17720 AXK 32893 b

1        Criminal Procedure of 1963. (F) Article 35 amended the
2        Criminal Code of 1961, the Rights of Crime Victims and
3        Witnesses Act, and the Unified Code of Corrections. (G)
4        Article 40 amended the Criminal Code of 1961 to
5        increase the penalty for compelling organization
6        membership of persons. (H) Article 45 created the
7        Secure Residential Youth Care Facility Licensing Act
8        and amended the State Finance Act, the Juvenile Court
9        Act of 1987, the Unified Code of Corrections, and the
10        Private Correctional Facility Moratorium Act. (I)
11        Article 50 amended the WIC Vendor Management Act, the
12        Firearm Owners Identification Card Act, the Juvenile
13        Court Act of 1987, the Criminal Code of 1961, the
14        Wrongs to Children Act, and the Unified Code of
15        Corrections.
16            (iii) On September 22, 1998, the Third District
17        Appellate Court in People v. Dainty, 701 N.E. 2d 118,
18        ruled that Public Act 88-680 violates the single
19        subject clause of the Illinois Constitution (Article
20        IV, Section 8 (d)) and was unconstitutional in its
21        entirety. As of the time this amendatory Act of 1999
22        was prepared, People v. Dainty was still subject to
23        appeal.
24            (iv) Child pornography is a vital concern to the
25        people of this State and the validity of future
26        prosecutions under the child pornography statute of

 

 

SB2856- 28 -LRB100 17720 AXK 32893 b

1        the Criminal Code of 1961 is in grave doubt.
2        (2) It is the purpose of this amendatory Act of 1999 to
3    prevent or minimize any problems relating to prosecutions
4    for child pornography that may result from challenges to
5    the constitutional validity of Public Act 88-680 by
6    re-enacting the Section relating to child pornography that
7    was included in Public Act 88-680.
8        (3) This amendatory Act of 1999 re-enacts Section
9    11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961, as it has been
10    amended. This re-enactment is intended to remove any
11    question as to the validity or content of that Section; it
12    is not intended to supersede any other Public Act that
13    amends the text of the Section as set forth in this
14    amendatory Act of 1999. The material is shown as existing
15    text (i.e., without underscoring) because, as of the time
16    this amendatory Act of 1999 was prepared, People v. Dainty
17    was subject to appeal to the Illinois Supreme Court.
18        (4) The re-enactment by this amendatory Act of 1999 of
19    Section 11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 relating to
20    child pornography that was amended by Public Act 88-680 is
21    not intended, and shall not be construed, to imply that
22    Public Act 88-680 is invalid or to limit or impair any
23    legal argument concerning whether those provisions were
24    substantially re-enacted by other Public Acts.
