AI Summary
This bill, known as the Salaried Board Confirmation Act, establishes a new process for confirming appointees to state boards that receive a salary from the state government. Under this legislation, the Illinois Senate must confirm or reject a Governor-appointed board member within either 30 legislative session days or 90 calendar days after the appointment, whichever happens first. If the Senate fails to take action within this timeframe, the appointment is automatically considered rejected. Additionally, the bill introduces a provision that if a Governor withdraws a nominee's name, that individual becomes ineligible to serve on the same board for two years following the withdrawal. This legislation aims to create a more structured and time-sensitive approach to board appointments, ensuring timely review and decision-making by the Senate and preventing prolonged uncertainty about board membership.
