Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Health in All Policies Act. Contains only a short title provision.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Adds reference to:
New Act

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Creates the Health in All Policies Act. Provides that the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health, in consultation with the Department of Public Health, shall convene a workgroup to review legislation and make new policy recommendations relating to the health of residents of the State. Provides that the workgroup shall examine: (1) the health of residents of the State, to the extent necessary to carry out the requirements of the Act; (2) ways for units of local government and State agencies to collaborate in implementing policies that will positively impact the health of residents of the State; and (3) the impact of specified factors on the health of residents of the State. Provides that the workgroup, using a health in all policies framework, shall review and make recommendations regarding how health considerations may be incorporated into the decision-making processes of government agencies and private stakeholders who interact with government agencies, foster collaboration among units of local government and State agencies, develop laws and policies to improve health and reduce health inequities, and make recommendations regarding how to implement laws and policies to improve health and reduce health inequities. Defines "health in all policies framework". Specifies who shall be members of the workgroup. Provides that, to the extent practicable, the members of the workgroup shall reflect the geographic, racial, ethnic, cultural, and gender diversity of the State. Provides that a State agency or entity shall provide information requested by the workgroup in a timely manner. Provides that the Department of Public Health shall provide administrative and other support to the workgroup. Provides that the workgroup shall meet at least twice a year. Provides that the workgroup shall prepare a report that summarizes its work and makes recommendations resulting from its study. Provides that the workgroup shall submit the report of its findings and recommendations to the General Assembly by December 31, 2020 and by December 31 of each year thereafter. Effective January 1, 2020.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
Adds reference to:
New Act

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill with the following changes: Provides that one workgroup member shall be a representative of a statewide public health association (rather than a public health association). Provides that the following shall also be members of the workgroup: the Director of Healthcare and Family Services, or the Director's designee; the State Superintendent of Education, or the Superintendent's designee; the Director of Corrections, or the Director's designee; the Chair of the Criminal Justice Information Authority, or the Chair's designee; the Director of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, or the Director's designee; the Director of Aging, or the Director's designee; one representative of the Office of the Governor appointed by the Governor; one representative of a local health department located in a county with a population of less than 3,000,000; one representative of a statewide public health institute representing multisector public health system stakeholders; 2 representatives of organizations that represent minority populations in public health; and one representative of a statewide organization representing physicians licensed to practice medicine in all its branches. Removes language allowing workgroup members to be reimbursed for their travel expenses from funds appropriated for that purpose. Requires State agencies or entities to provide information in a timely manner in response to requests for information submitted by the workgroup, except where that information is otherwise prohibited from disclosure or dissemination by relevant legal authorities (rather than requiring State agencies or entities to provide information requested by the workgroup in a timely manner). Provides that the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health, in consultation with the Department of Public Health and members of the workgroup, shall determine a focus area for the report on an annual basis. Requires the annual report and recommendations to be shared with the Department of Public Health and the State Board of Health and to be considered in the development of the State Health Improvement Plan every 5 years. Effective January 1, 2020.
