Legislation Overview

Title: SAFETY-TECH

Description: Amends the Illinois State Police Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois. Provides that the Illinois State Police shall conduct an analysis of the cumulative data regarding the disposition of cases involving a stolen firearm or a firearm with an obliterated serial number that was used or alleged to have been used in the commission of an offense and make that information available on the Illinois State Police publicly accessible databases. Provides that the Illinois State Police shall publish the results of its analysis in a report to the General Assembly, Governor, and Attorney General and shall make the report available on its website. Amends the Criminal Identification Act. Provides that the final disposition information that must be provided by the clerks of the circuit court to the Illinois State Police shall include for each charge in any case in which a firearm is alleged to have been used in the commission of an offense, the serial number of any firearm involved in the case, or if the serial number was obliterated, as provided by the State's Attorney to the clerk of the circuit court at the time of disposition. Deletes the amendatory changes to the sentencing hearing provisions of the Unified Code of Corrections. Amends the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act. Provides that the Illinois State Police must deny the application or suspend or revoke a person's Firearm Owner's Identification Card upon receipt of a report from the Department of Human Services that an applicant or owner poses a clear and present danger. Requires the Department of Human Services to provide by rule for such a report. Makes similar changes if a law enforcement or school administrator notifies the Illinois State Police that a person poses a clear and present danger. Requires any information disclosed under the Act to be confidential. Prohibits the information from being redisclosed or used for any other purpose except as otherwise allowed by law. Provides that the identity of the reporting person, if the reporting person is a law enforcement officer or school administrator, may be disclosed only to the subject of the report if required by the Firearm Owner's Identification Card Review Board or a court as authorized under the Act. Requires that no later than January 1, 2026, the Firearm Owner's Identification Card Review Board must establish a process by which any person who is subject to the provisions of the Act can request expedited review from the Board. Requires that the Illinois State Police must provide the Board or any court with jurisdiction all records relevant to the request for relief. Allows the Illinois State Police and the individual seeking expedited relief to seek judicial review upon receipt of a final administrative decision under the Act. Provides that the Board, Illinois State Police, or employees and agents of the Board and Illinois State Police participating in the process under the Act may not be held liable for damages in any civil action arising from the alleged wrongful or improper granting, denying, renewing, revoking, suspending, or failing to grant, deny, renew, revoke, or suspend a Firearm Owner's Identification Card. Provides that, if and only if Senate Bill 8 of the 104th General Assembly becomes law in the form passed by the Senate on April 10, 2025, then the Unified Code of Corrections is amended to delete from a provision concerning sentencing hearings the changes made to that provision by Senate Bill 8. Effective immediately, except that (i) some provisions take effect on January 1, 2026 and (ii) other provisions take effect immediately or upon the date Senate Bill 8 of the 104th General Assembly takes effect, whichever is later.
