Bill > HB2008

This bill appropriates a minimal sum of $2 from the General Revenue Fund to the Judicial Inquiry Board (JIB) for its fiscal year 2026 operational expenses. The Judicial Inquiry Board is a state agency responsible for investigating complaints and potential misconduct against judges in Illinois. The appropriation, though symbolically small, is intended to support the board's ordinary and contingent expenses, which typically include administrative costs, investigations, and potential disciplinary proceedings. The bill specifies that the appropriation will become effective on July 1, 2025, which marks the start of the next fiscal year, and allows for the full $2 to be used or a portion of it as needed by the JIB to fulfill its statutory responsibilities.
