By direction of the Secretary, the foregoing resolutions were referred to the Resolutions Consent

Calendar.

Senator Link offered the following Senate Resolution, which was referred to the Committee on

Assignments:


WHEREAS, The prices of commodities - from oil and copper to coffee and corn - have declined by 10-

70% per commodity over the past year as measured in the Dow Jones and Bloomberg Commodity Indices; the price of oil has fallen 70%; this price collapse is now creating a new crisis; and

WHEREAS, The collapse of commodity prices is the new "subprime mortgage" crisis of 2016; the commodities and their related financial paper are tied to a $300 trillion derivatives bubble in the major

banks and other companies in the United States, and far more internationally; it was the derivatives

meltdown that set off the 2008 financial collapse; and

WHEREAS, This new financial crisis is being driven by a collapse of our industry and infrastructure;

in November and December of 2015, U.S. Commerce Department durable goods orders fell by 1.1% and 5.1% respectively; mass layoffs are increasing, highlighted by the announcement of 10,000 layoffs at

Caterpillar and 200,000 layoffs in the oil fields; the Institute for Supply Management Manufacturing Index

has contracted for four straight months nationwide; and

WHEREAS, A return to a durable recovery will require adoption of national credit and national banking

policies as was done by Alexander Hamilton, John Quincy Adams, Abraham Lincoln, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, and John F. Kennedy; the program of federal credit to industry, states,

and cities built the industry and agriculture of our nation; and

WHEREAS, National credit, under this Constitutional program, can be made available for the creation

of productive jobs in infrastructure, manufacturing, and high technology projects, thus creating mass

employment for our now heavily unemployed and underemployed workforce, especially young people; therefore, be it

RESOLVED, BY THE SENATE OF THE ONE HUNDREDTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we urge the United States Congress to immediately adopt the "American

Recovery" program by doing the following:

1) Restore the provisions of the Glass Steagall Act, and pass HR. 381 in the U.S. House of

10

[January 24, 2017]

Representatives and S. 1709 in the U.S. Senate, which aim to immediately restore the separation of investment and commercial banking; Glass-Steagall in the U.S. House has four Illinois Congresspersons

co-sponsoring, and was law for 66 years; it prevented banking crises like the one experienced in 2008;

2) Return to a national banking and a federal credit system, modeled on the principles of

Alexander Hamilton's First Bank of the United States, which built all the infrastructure of the nation for

the first 40 years; it was reinstituted as Illinois native son Abraham Lincoln's National Banking-Greenback policy that built everything from railroads to steel mills; Lincoln was the architect of the

Transcontinental Rail System that built America, and as a State Legislator he was a leading sponsor of

internal improvements and water projects here in Illinois; nationally, Lincoln was a leading advocate for a new National Bank; the same credit policy was embodied in Franklin Roosevelt's Reconstruction

Finance Corporation, which financed the New Deal infrastructure program; for example the Works Progress Administration was financed by RFC and employed tens of thousands of Chicagoans of all

ethnic backgrounds in productive jobs; Ronald Reagan's father, Jack, was the director of the Works

Progress Administration in Peoria;

3) Use the federal credit system to build a modern network of high speed rail, power

generating systems, water projects, such as those urgently needed in the Southwest and cities like Flint,

Michigan; Chicago; Philadelphia; and others nationwide; and other critical programs; and

4) Launch a program to rebuild our space program to put a permanent manned colony on the

Moon and explore the solar system, and develop a program to create nuclear fusion, to finally solve the

energy needs of the nation and the planet; the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is actively

involved in fusion research; and be it further

RESOLVED, That suitable copies of this resolution be delivered to President Donald Trump, U.S.

Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and all members of the Illinois Congressional Delegation.

Senator Bush offered the following Senate Resolution, which was referred to the Committee on

Assignments:


WHEREAS, Illinois has more units of local government than any state in the country, numbered at over

7,000; and

WHEREAS, The General Assembly finds that consolidation of units of local government will result in

cost-saving for the taxpayers; and

WHEREAS, The General Assembly finds that consolidation of units of local government shall only

occur in the absence of reductions in the quality of services to taxpayers; and

WHEREAS, Lake County and the 31st Legislative District would benefit from a study assessing how

specific units of local government may be consolidated or dissolved; therefore, be it

RESOLVED, BY THE SENATE OF THE ONE HUNDREDTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE

STATE OF ILLINOIS, that the Working Group on Local Government Consolidation is created to identify

ways to eliminate barriers to consolidation and resolve certain discrepancies in the Illinois statutes governing local governments and special districts in Lake County and the 31st Legislative District; and be

it further

RESOLVED, That the Working Group shall consist of the following members:

(1) one member of the Senate appointed by the President of the Senate, who shall serve

as chair;

(2) one member of the Senate appointed by the Senate Minority Leader;

(3) one member selected from recommendations provided by the Lake County Board to be

11

[January 24, 2017]

appointed by the Governor;

(4) one member selected from recommendations provided by the Lake County Forest Preserve

District to be appointed by the Governor;

(5) three members selected from recommendations provided by an association representing local townships to be appointed by the Governor;

(6) two members selected from recommendations provided by an association representing

local fire protection districts to be appointed by the Governor;

(7) two members selected from recommendations provided by an association representing

local park districts to be appointed by the Governor;

(8) one member selected by the College of Lake County to be appointed by the Governor; (9) two members from local elementary school districts selected from recommendations

provided by the Superintendent of Schools to be appointed by the Governor;

(10) two members from local high school districts selected from recommendations provided

by the Superintendent of Schools to be appointed by the Governor; and

(11) three members selected from recommendations provided by an association representing local municipalities or cities to be appointed by Governor Rauner; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Working Group shall meet periodically but no less than once every three months;

the group shall meet in accordance with the requirements of the Open Meetings Act; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Illinois Department of Revenue shall provide administrative support and technical assistance to the Working Group; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Working Group shall accept testimony and evidence from third parties, including comments from the public at large, in crafting their report to the General Assembly; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Working Group shall submit their report to the General Assembly no later than May 31, 2018; the report shall include findings including, but not limited to, the following issues as they

occur in Lake County:

(1) an assessment of the number of units of local government and the costs associated with each unit, including salaries, expenses, and operating costs;

(2) an assessment of the units of local government that are engaged in intergovernmental

cooperation efforts and what, if any, cost savings have resulted from such partnerships;

(3) recommendations for the elimination of barriers to consolidation;

(4) recommendations for the streamlining or consolidation of units of local government;

and

(5) recommendations for intergovernmental cooperation potential; and be it further

RESOLVED, That suitable copies of this resolution be delivered to the Chair of the Working Group on Local Government Consolidation and Governor Rauner.

Senator Hunter offered the following Senate Joint Resolution, which was referred to the Committee on Assignments:


14

[January 24, 2017]

WHEREAS, Youth and young adults, ages 16 to 24, who fall into two groups need opportunities to become successful adults: (1) those who are neither working nor in school, including those without a high

school diploma, and (2) those who are low-attending, jobless high school students; these individuals are

in need of opportunities to succeed as adults; according to a recent study by the Great Cities Institute at the University of Illinois at Chicago, in 2014, there were 190,945 youth and young adults (16 to 24 years

old) who were jobless and out-of-school in Illinois; of those, 46,501 were between 16 and 19 years of age

and 144,444 between the ages of 20 and 24; and

WHEREAS, Of these 190,945 jobless and out-of-school youth and young adults, 73,130 were white,

39,712 Hispanic, and 78,103 were African American; and

WHEREAS, The vast majority of these youth and young adults who are neither working nor in school, including those without a high school diploma and those who are low-attending jobless high school

students, come from low-income areas in both Chicago and downstate; and

WHEREAS, Many of these youth and young adults need opportunities to become successful adults and

would benefit from education and employment opportunities if these opportunities are structured using

evidence based/best program practices of smaller, more flexible, and more structured comprehensive

programming to address their education, work, and social development needs; and

WHEREAS, Illinois currently has a shortage of skilled workers; provided with the right opportunities, these youth and young adults, could be trained to fill those vacancies for the benefit of the employers, the

Illinois economy, and their own futures; and

WHEREAS, According to the Illinois Department of Corrections Fiscal Report for 2014, only 19.7%

of inmates in Illinois prisons completed high school, and only 19.2% completed a GED program, leaving

62% of inmates in Illinois without an education higher than 11th grade; and

WHEREAS, Youth without a high school diploma earn $516,000 less over their lifetimes than those

with high school diplomas and some college education; and

WHEREAS, The benefit to Illinois taxpayers is over $290,000 in tax revenue over the lifetime of a

youth who earns a high school diploma versus a youth who does not earn a high school diploma; there is also a savings to taxpayers in terms of youth with a high school diploma requiring less expenditures for

social services such as welfare, mental health and dependency services, and reduced risk of imprisonment

or other criminal justice related costs; and

WHEREAS, There is significant research and program experience to draw upon to assist in the

development of successful programs to support out-of-school and jobless youth to improve their education and find employment; therefore, be it

RESOLVED, BY THE SENATE OF THE ONE HUNDREDTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES CONCURRING HEREIN, that there is

created the Statewide Task Force on Developing Opportunities for Youth and Young Adults Who Are

Jobless and Out-of-School in order to examine and develop programs to address the growing numbers of out-of-school and jobless youth in Illinois, including those without a high school diploma, who are neither

working nor in school, and low-attending jobless high school students; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the purpose of the Task Force is to examine policies, programs, and other issues

related to developing a variety of successful approaches using best program practices for out-of-school

and jobless youth students, with the goal of improving their education, work-related, and social development skills, so that they can successfully enter the workforce and become productive adults; and

be it further

RESOLVED, That the Task Force shall be composed of the following members:

(1) Eight legislators, two appointed by the President of the Senate, two appointed by

the Speaker of the House, two appointed by the House Minority Leader, and two appointed by the Senate

Minority Leader;

15

President of the Senate, three appointed by the Speaker of the House, three appointed by the House Minority Leader, three appointed by the Senate Minority Leader, and three appointed by the Governor,

with one of these public representatives serving as the Chairperson of the Task Force; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the duties of the Task Force shall include conducting a series of public hearings and

listening sessions throughout the State to discuss the issues of jobless and out-of-school youth including

youth without a high school diploma and low-attending high school students who need opportunities to become successful adults; the Task Force will examine their impact on various regions of the State and

complete a review of data regarding out-of-school and jobless youth comparing Illinois with other states

in the region and nationally, including a review of various financing and funding mechanisms used by other states, counties, cities, foundations, and other financial funding sources; the Task Force will submit

a final report with recommendations to the Governor and the General Assembly on ways to address these

challenges; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Task Force shall issue an interim report of its findings to the Governor and the

of State shall convene the House of Representatives to elect from its membership a Speaker of the House

of Representatives as presiding officer, and the Governor shall convene the Senate to elect from its membership a President of the Senate as presiding officer. A person may serve no more than ten years in

any one of the following offices: Speaker of the House of Representatives, President of the Senate,
