Bill Tracker
Tracking bills is difficult. More than 180,000 bills are filed every year in state assemblies across the nation. While local and national news outlets might report on marquee legislation, engaged citizens and advocacy organizations often need to know where legislation of interest stands, and act quickly.
BGA maintains a complete report of key legislation in Illinois. Review the status of each bill in the sections below — making it easy to stay up to date and informed as legislation gets introduced by bill sponsors, heard in committees, amended, passed, and becomes law.
