Bill Summary
Amends the Illinois TRUST Act. Provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, a county is not required to comply with the provisions of the Act if the county board of the county adopts a resolution for that purpose on or after the effective date of the amendatory Act. Provides that if the county board adopts such a resolution, neither the county nor any officer or employee of the county shall be civilly or criminally liable for noncompliance with the Act.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Illinois TRUST Act to allow counties to opt out of complying with the Act's provisions. Specifically, a county board can adopt a resolution that exempts the county from following the Act, and if such a resolution is passed, the county and its employees would be protected from any civil or criminal liability for not adhering to the TRUST Act. While the specific details of the original TRUST Act are not provided in this excerpt, the Illinois TRUST Act is likely related to immigration enforcement and local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities. The bill gives county governments more discretion in how they choose to implement the Act's requirements, effectively creating a local opt-out mechanism that provides legal protection for counties that decide not to comply with the Act's original mandates.
