Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Illinois Abortion Law of 1975.  Provides that if (i) a      
   minor who is a resident of a state bordering this State comes to  this      
   State  for the purpose and with the intention of obtaining an abortion      
   and (ii) there is in effect  in  that  other  state  a  law  requiring      
   parental  consent  or  parental notification before an abortion may be      
   performed on the minor, then the minor may not obtain an  abortion  in      
   this  State  until  there  is compliance with that parental consent or      
   parental notification law.  Provides that a minor who is a resident of      
   a state bordering this State, who comes to this State for the  purpose
