AI Summary
This bill amends the State Designations Act, which is a law that officially recognizes various symbols and designations for the State of Illinois. Specifically, it adds two new sections to this act: one designating the Italian beef sandwich as the official State sandwich, and another designating the horseshoe sandwich as the official State open-faced sandwich. An "open-faced sandwich" is a sandwich where the filling is placed on top of a slice of bread, rather than between two slices.
