I have spent a lot of time on the Illinois General Assembly website reviewing HB183. Does anyone have a link to documents pertaining to HB183 Legislative Intent? I would like to have my ducks in a row when I start teaching courses.
The House Judiciary Committee recommends the House do concur on HB1453 on a vote of 13/3/0. (this does not yet mean the House has voted on it.)
This has nothing to do with legislative intent but may give you a small bit of insight… None of it is “official” other than what you see re-posted from the Illinois State Police http://chicagogunsmith.com/blog/illinois-carry-concealed-law/137/ You may want to ask over at http://illinoiscarry.com/forum/index.php Those guys know a ton more than I do.
HB183 is now Public Act 98-0063
And… ISP will have a 3 month window to “process” the requisite paperwork. So - the EARLIEST that anyone will be carrying will be 9 months - the best part of a year down the road. (And really - what are the sanctions if ISP DOES take longer than 90 days for processing:)
john - trapped in this god-forsaken state
Finally 
I still don’t hear that fat lady singing, though!!!

I won’t hear her singing until the very first permit is issued. But then it still won’t be over, every legislative session we should expect anti gun legislation and attacks on not only our 2a rights in general but specifically our CC rights.
I did not see any penalties or anything in HB183 for failure to comply with deadlines. I have been informed that the ISP is working to make it happen though and the NRA lobbyist, Todd Vandermeir, is working with the ISP to implement the system.
1453 fails in the house. 63y 47n, 71 was required to pass.
I would like to see the final printed copy of P.A. 98-0063. It will take some time before it is issued.
Ask and you shall receive. http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/publicacts/fulltext.asp?Name=098-0063
Thank you. I have already reviewed all 168 pages on the link a few times. There are still a lot of additions and deletions on the link. I will feel better when I see the final draft.
I would like clarification from the legislature as to what needs to be covered in the criminal law portion of a CCW class. They also need to clarify how the B-27 target will be scored. I suspect an Illinois CCW instructor will be issued a unique number like the FOID.
We took a giant step in the right direction today, but there is still a lot to do.
Yup, and 2 months to do it.
Not from Il, but wishing you good luck.
So now that the general assembly told muttonhead to shove it, I wonder what will become of his “warning” not to mess with his AV? Probably nothin as everyone knows he’s just an empty suit but he probably thought he sounded pretty tough.

Right now the ISRA is suing for immediate FOID carry until the ISP starts to issue permits.
Am I correct in reading the law that basically the Crook County AWB is gone and is being replaced by individual town bans? The info I’ve seen doesn’t look like too many towns enacted one.

I don’t think we are out of the woods until July 19th.
