This is a heads up about a bill that died last year and is being proposed
again, nearly word for word. It, frankly, is toxic. Members of the group
from Illinois please contact me off list to coordinate resistance to this
poisonous thing. The text of it is below my signature.

3 Illinois Department of Revenue that includes a certification,
4 signed by its Director or designee, attesting to the amount of

18 receives, from the licensee, a request for a hearing before the
19 Department to dispute the matters contained in the order.
20 Any suspension imposed under this subsection (g) shall be

4 individuals licensed under the Medical Practice Act of 1987,
5 the title "Retired" may be used in the profile required by the
6 Patients' Right to Know Act. The use of the title "Retired"
7 shall not constitute representation of current licensure,
8 registration, or certification. Any person without an active
9 license, registration, or certificate in a profession that
10 requires licensure, registration, or certification shall not
11 be permitted to practice that profession.
12 (i) Within 180 days after December 23, 2009 (the effective
13 date of Public Act 96-852), the Department shall promulgate
14 rules which permit a person with a criminal record, who seeks a
15 license or certificate in an occupation for which a criminal
16 record is not expressly a per se bar, to apply to the
17 Department for a non-binding, advisory opinion to be provided
18 by the Board or body with the authority to issue the license or
19 certificate as to whether his or her criminal record would bar
20 the individual from the licensure or certification sought,
21 should the individual meet all other licensure requirements
22 including, but not limited to, the successful completion of the
23 relevant examinations.
24 (j) The Department shall establish a service dog license
25 program under which a dog acting as a service dog shall be
