night, the Chair indfcated we would check the trans-
cripts of last Friday to ascertain whether or not we
were able to suspend the rules at that time in connec-
tion kith Bills that otherwise would have expired on
Sttnday. The transcript is clear that Mr. Walsh asked
to suspend as we had bebn doing. Mr. Houlihan o'bjected.
And so those Bills that, I don't know whether he put...
tbat are on this sheet, Senate and House Bills, were
effectively tabled pursuant to Rule 37-C as of mid-
night last Friday. It takes 107 votes for us to
bring them back. Are there any questions, are there

Agreed Resolutions are a11 congratulatory except for
House Resolution 1063 introduced by Representative

had the contract under which the remodeling of thi's
House was accomplished and the individual microphones
were installed be required to either cbange the micro-
phones.or the speakers. That's aa important decision.

,ik are made frequently at the podiut while the record
and the scoreboard still shows the tegislative yoting
another way. The official record fn this particular
' Roll Call indicates four others cbanged their vote .
probably because they realize the Pay Commission might
prove a sensitive issue back home. Now, Ladies and
Gentlemen of the House and particularly mey I realize
I was a little hard on the media last week. And thatî
too bad because I did what I thought they had coming
in regard to pay ralses. So I went up this morning
and I checked wlth the Clerk's Office and what I was
% told up there by the ladies was last week someone
called up and said gthis fs Representative HirschfeldQ .
calling and I want my vote changed from yea to nay.f
. And they said, 'we cannot do that witbout checking with
Mr. selcke first.' He said,#donît worry about that.
- because I'm a Member of this House, I*m a personal
friend of Mr. Selcke's'. Now I want the Members of
thls House to know that I did not call the Clerk's
Office to change my vote. I have never snuck around
this House and changed a vote. If anything, I prob-
ably take too many controversial provisions, I'm not
. about to change one of them after I ve taken it. I
resent tbe person that called the Clerk's Office and
telliug them he was me and changed my vote. I resent$'j thts damned article because...because the person whof1

think that Mr. Selcke's got any obligation to the
media to turn out a Roll Call the mlnute the medfa
wants ft. He...his oblikation is to this House and
to the Membership and to the Clerk's office to write
it in an orderly fashion. And frankly I think he's
doing a bell of a job and a lot' better job than the' media could ever do if they had 25 years.''
Speaker Blair: nWhat purpose does the Gentleman from Nacon
rfse, Mr. Borchers?'l
Borchers: HMr. Speaker and fellow Members of the Housey I'm
not really trying to think about what I want to say
but Ifn inspired by my good friend, Representatlve
Hirschfeld. I want to shov you tbe headlines of this%
morning's paper, The Decatur Herald Review. No< every
one of you vas here last nigbt and heard Represeatativ
Hanahan, Representative Alsup, Representative Tipéword
and myself discuss the merits of the Oakley Reservofr.
Now this is the Decatur paper, they have a 1ot of
young reporters there and one of tbem sat last nighty
don't know whether he's there now or not, I#m not
going to take time to look. Now, I want you to knov:
that in t:e headlines it says 'most of the jobs...
Oakley farms fails'. A1l ofqthfs is true. But in
the paper with the young reporters that are hired by
the Decatur Herald Review, and I presume by other
papers also throughout tbis state, although from my
point of view, Representative Tipsword's point of
view. Representative Alsup's point of view. we won
a good fight for what we think is the best interest
to the people of a1l of Sangamon Valley. Neverthe-
less not only...Representative Hanahan is mentioned.
The people that did the fightfng and tried to do our
best. twtsting arms of you folks herev our compatriots,
trying to get you to go along with us. And you did.

of just what's been said by Representative Hirschfeld.'

politics. I don't always agree with Representative
Hirschfeld. I don't always agree wftb the way he
votes on various issues before t:is House. But there
is one thing that I've always found true about him, .
is that when be takes a posftion he doesn't dare, he

Ij *instance that someone can call the Clerk s Offtce
and portray to be a Member of thfs Housey and Daybe
was I don't know, but pretend to be-the Member in
question and change a vote and then have headlines
in his local paper that certainly are embarrassing
as far as his constituency is concerned then I
would say to you, Mr. Speakery that I think that the
Rules Committee better...better devote a little bit
of attention as far as making a rule fs concerned on
the changing of votes. I'm not faulting the Clerk's
Office. I think they do a magnfftcent job. And in
this instance probably figured that they were assis-

it was not him. I think lt's one of the cheapest$ x
sbots Ifve ever seen. I would hope that we could find
out the name of that caller.''

Gentleman from McHenrysin ansver to Representatfve
Mugalianfs questiow say tbere'd be no problem on the
split rates for grocery store; having one rate for
food items and another rate for non-food items be-
cause the computer equipment is used in Crystal
Lake. Welly I want him to know there are many small
grocery stores and independent grocers in this state
who can't afford a computer in their store.. And it's
unfair to him to put an Amendment in that discriminates
in favor of the large chatn stores that can put com-
puters in even obscure towns like Crystal Lake and
at the same time discriminates, I guess, against the
small independent grocer who can't afford a computer
in his store. Last year youRll remember the retailers
came and opposed Speaker Blair's wonderful sales re-
lief package because they said tt was fmpossible to
administer; there'd be one rate for groceries and
another rate for the non-grocery items that are so '
common in supermarkets today. And therefore, when -
the Bill got to the Senate they were successful in
defeaLing it. And Representative Skinner admits the
same problem exists with his Amendment except nou .
because Crystal take has a computer in their Jewel
store and Jewel is located right next door in Barring-
ton, he thinks itfll work, that it's practical. And
believe me, this Amendment discriminates against
every small retail merchant in the State of Illinois
who has to set up one percentage for hfs food items
and another sales tax percentage for his non-food
items. It not only leaves the State of Illinois with-
out sufficfent funds to fully fund our School Aid
Formula but it also completely destroys the tusiness
of the small merchants of our state. And I ask that
6 you defeat Amendment //2 to House Bill 2272 as being1t
n0t only impractical an operation but is robbtng theV

Leinenweber: ''Tbank you, Mr. Speakex, Members of tbe Housç, .
the old bugaboo of the split vote is just not there. I
happened to spend the weekend in Indiana which does
have split rates for their sales tax and there's
actually no problem there. The large stores as the
Gentleman indicates has the sophisticated equipment
that can run double totals and the smaller storey
however, with the more relaxed pace of not haviag
long lines of people waiting to check out, they merely
do. it by running two separate totals; one for the
heavier tax items and one for the smaller size tax
items and then just add the two tégether. And cer-
tainly you mfght be able to argue against this Bï11
on the fiscal implications but certïinly you can't
argue against it on the splft rate because I've seœn
tt work. It works well in Indiana and if youVre in-
clined to go for sales tax relief then you ought to
vote aye regardless of the split vote consequences.
If you aren't then you ought to vote no.''

in Illinois. The small: small people in respect to
. their money that they have to spend and theydre spen-
ding a bigh percentage on groceriesy this is going to
be spme tax relief. And I bope, Mr. Speaker, that
under the administration of the present Governor and
under the activities of the General Assembly that we
will give some tax relief to those people in Illinois
who deserve it. So, Mr. Speaker, I wholeheartedly
support Aaendment //2 and ask the Membership to adopt

about thts as far as tax relief is concerned. Thfs is
absolute, postive tax relief. It's not hidden. The
proposal is House Bill 2272 for prescription drugs
is as phony an issue as I've seen since I've been here.
Thfs tax savings is not going to be passed on. As I
told you last week on the House floor, there was a

pharmacists claimed that they would not pass this
savings on on prescription drugs. And I'm sure that

and I think thét we should go along with Represen-
tative Skinner and put his Amendment on.''
speaker Blair: ''A11 right. Is there any further discussion
on Amendment //2? Tbe centleman care to close?'' '
Skinner: ï'Yes: Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the
House, addressing myself to Representative Pierce's
. objections I would like to reply first of a11 to
make him realize that I specifically answered Repre-
sentative Mugalian's question about how the Jewél
Tea Store fn my town would handle the situatfon.
And I think I answered it accurately. I would like
' to suggest that if in Indiana they can have a split
rate and Wisconsin they...can have a split rate and
if with the new minimum wage that is just going into
effect in Illinois because of Representatfve Hanahanîs
1Ew of a couple years ago, the new employees in the
Ma and Pa stores wfll be competent than they have ' -
been in the past. That they will be able to handlf
the split rates with ease. You know, earlier thts
' yeary earlier this last week within the last sevea
days, we passed out $34,000,000 of tax relfef for
senior citizens even though we'd already passed meaa-
ingful property tax relief. Now itîs about time we '
start talking about tax relief for everybody. Now it#
not Just the people over the 65 that are hurttng, it's
everybody in the state. Now what is completely being
forgotten by the opponents of this Amendment is that
we have $96,000,000 more available today than we had
two weeks ago. In facty that's an addftfon to the
$138,000,000 of the Chamber of Commerce's estimates.
And it comes from Regional Transft Authority. That
l has been declared unconstitutional as you know. So
it we have $234,000,000 available. You subtract from('ï that the $73,000:000 from full funding and you stfll

Speaker Blair: HMr. William Walsh.''

ment and because as has been stated ft does provfde
for meaningful tax reliefy I would request that there
be a Roll Call, a record vote, on this Amendment and
' Tfperhaps on other Amendments that might follow.
Speaker Blair: ''We11y we certainly will take a Roll Call on
this Amendment. The question fs, shall Amendment //2
to House Bill 2272 be adopted? A11 those in favor
will vote aye and the opposed no. Mr. Houlihan.''
Houlihan: '%1r. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the Rouse, -'
ic's my feeling that this Amendment'and subsequent
Amendments bave been offered to delay the consideritto
of thls Bi11 and are not really a serfous attempt to
improve the legislation but rather to hold tbe Bill
so that it won't be considered on Third Reading. I
would ask that you give a red light, a no vote, to
this Amendment so we can move ahead and discuss the
merits of House Bfll 2272 on Third Reading as it was
drafted. I mfght also add that we have passed out
other tax relief measures, other proposals: in total
of some fffty Dillfon dollars. And the state is not
' going to be able to afford increasing tax relief wben
we have voted out full funding of schools and other
additional programs in this Legislature. I would hope
' that there would be more red lighes on ehat board so
we can defeat this attempt to gut a reasonable and a
responsible effort to provide tax relief to al1 the
citizens of the State of Illinois. And I urge your

Londrigan: HMr. Speaker and Ladies and' Gentlemen o.f the'H.ousea
ft seems obvious that some on the other side are at-
temptlng to beat thïs tax relîef Deasure by puttlng on
a number of Amendments. The ones who that are attemp-
ting to put on this Aoendment obvlously know tbat it
is unworkable and a bad Amendment. The sames oness
tbe same ones that proposed this measure consistently
in the past when it was an attempt to take off al1
the sales tax on food and medicine. They, themselvesy
got up and argued that it is unworkable; that the
stores cannot manage it. And now rather than take
off a total of five percent they are attempting to
take off a measly one percent which will be of little
benefit to the people but will be a great hardship ' .
- to the stores. And they know this. And they know
the stores are gofng to be in here screaming to beat' '
this total package Bill. Now why don't they permit
the Sponsor to keep this Bill in the form in which be
introduced it so that possibly we can have some tax
relief on medicine. It's obviously that they...ob-
vivus that they do not want him to have his B1l1 and
t'aey are going to muddy up the Bill in every way pos-
sible so that the stores and the Governor and every-
one else concerned would have to be against it. And
again, defeat tax relief for tbe people. I 'sugaest
we 1et the Sponsor proceed with this Bi11 and ktll

the sales tax on nedicine. The 'Bi11s passed over-
whelmingly. I thtnk they passed because the Members. 1
recognfzed that especfally for senior citizens tzhose
'medical expen'ses'are already enormously bigh in re-'
ylation to their limited incomes it s very important
that the sales tax on Dedicines and medlcal supplies
be repealed and that's the original intent .of the
Bi1l. Some additional Amendments have been added
which would lower the sales taœ on food but I d'on't
think that changes the essential ioportance of're-
pealing the sales tax on medicines and medical sup-
plies especially for our elderly citizens. And I
would urge a no vote on the Amendment.l'
Speaker Blair; HMr. Skinner.''
Skinner: NMr. Speaker, it would seem to me that Members of
t'ae Revenue Committee, especfallyy should realize
the difference between the service occupation tax ' -
and the retail occupatfon tax. The service occupa--
tion tax for...on pharmaceuticals is paid on the
wholesale price of drugs by the pharmacists and it
does not show up as tbe 5Z added on...at the cash
register. As a matter of fact one Representative
told me he got a letter from one of his constituents
praising h1m for taking off the tax on drugs already
because he went to his local pharmacy and he dfdn't
have the 5Z added on. So thfs means that this is
i i ible tax relief. Now further I would su'ggestnV S , ,
that it is perhaps not even meaningful tax relief
because there is ao provision in this Bi11 tbat the
pharmacist pass on the relief to the...to the senior
citfzens or whoever else is buying the pharmaceuticals
The original Bill vas a fraud fn its entirety and de-
serves to be completely taken from the Bill now that
We have put on a good Amendment. l4e need tax relief

Speaker Blalr; DMr. Sehlickman.'' '
Schlfckaan) HMr. Speaker and Members of the House, back ïn '
1970 there was a Constitutional Convention. And
the'delegates to that Convention discussed the mat-
ter of equitable taxation tax reform. 'And what tbe
delegates recomnended and what the people of the
state approved was a Revenue Article that allowed
for the classification of items when tt caoe to
taxation. And what they specifically had in mind
and what they conveyed to the voters within the
state was the ability of this Ceneral Assemblyy uader
the new Conatitution, classify and more specifically,
to eliminate the sales tax on drugs and medicines
and food. Now with regards to ffscal responsibilityy
it seems to mey that tbis matter of classifying pr.o-
viding tax reform and tax relief has got to be done
on an evolutionary basis. To take first things first.
Nowy with regards to the tax on drugs and medicines:
wefre talkfng about prescriptlon drugs and medicines,
webre talking about nonprescription drugs and medi-
clnesp we're talking about medical supplies. Now
it's true that there is the servtce use tax concernin
prescription drugs but 1 thfnk it would be unconstt-
tutional if we didn't include them. I think what
werve got to focus on is the fact that by this Bill
as it was originally introduced the tax would be
eliminated from nonprescription drugs and medicines
and suppltes. And I point out to you that for the
' poor fn thïs state they prescrfbe thefr olzn medicfne
and they pay a tax on it. It seems to me that would
be a responsible, it would be a breach of faith with
the people of the state if we were to eliminate the

Kosinski: ''Mr. Speaker and Ladfes and Gentlemen of the .Housey
I merely wish to point out that in the last Session
we passed a Revenue Bill wherebv drugqists and other
supplfers of merchandise on this basisz to the con-
sumer, will get a tax credit at the end of eacb
month for monies they have paid their suppliers on
retail occupation tax. So if this Amendment passes
I think wedll have to do something about that and
make a cbange in tbe Revenue Act insofar as druggists
are concerned.''
' Speaker Blair: HMr. Miller to close.'l
Miller: HWell, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemenz I listened
wfth interest to this debate on Amendment //5. Let ' -
- me say first that I had no intention, and I do not
like to be accused of placing...offering thls Amend-
ment for the purpose of being dilatory, that's not
my intention. But I can't sit here on this floor
and say that we s'aould have what I call essentially
tax relief for druggists. Now I recognize that under
House Bill 1270 for 2272 as it's fileds that there is
a little tax relief in their for those people who
buy drugs ever the counter, not the prescrlptïon
drugs. But I think every Member on this floor over
the years that Igve been down here, and it's been
ten years, has been talking how regressive the state
sales tax is. Now, more than...of the poor people
in this State of Illinois, Ifm informed that more
. than half of their dollars that they have to spend
are spent on food. So, if wefre going to talk about
meaningful tax relief for the poor people of tbis
state, how better can we do it than reduce tbe sales

tax on food? Now, in order to accomplish that
result, the answer is, that Itm convinced that
$70,000,000 which is what this would cost as this
Bill now stands, that we better reduce that cost
'to the state. And the way to do it is to reduce
approximately $20,000,000 from che spggested exem-
ption of prescription and nonprescription drugs
and leave it stand on...to reduce the sales tax on
food. That's the way to get results. That's the
way to help the poor people wbo are our people we
are trying to represent. Soy Mr. Speaker, I urge,
I uyge that we take this step and adopt Amendment

to explain my vote. It bas been pointed out that
what might be called a question was the tax on pre-
scription drugs. But thatfs only a sma12 portion
of the tax relief related drugs: medical supplies
and other materials. Representative Scblickman, I
think, clearly pointed out the need for making this
consistent and the need for leaving that in. And it
is our inteationy and the intentfon of this legis-
lation, to have that tax passed on. And I believe
that we ought to have this Billy with the form itfs
in, and not have this tax on medicine and drugs and
medical supplies so that people would not get tax'
relfef, for example, if they were going to buy a
wheelchair. If they were going to use regular drugs
such as aspirin or common household remedies for
colds, for things of that sort. And I would urge
that the Members gfve a no vote to thts Amendment

until weVve got tt on the desks. A11 right: I
. understand the Amendment bas been out now and tbe
chair recognizes Mr. Washburn.''
Washburn: HThank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies of the House, ' ..
- I offer Amendment //6 to House Bill .2272 which does
the following. Amendment II6 amends House Bill 2272
on page 1 by deleting line 1 and inserting fn lieu
thereof the following 1an act to exempt nonprescrip-
tion' and on page l by deletïmg line 13 and inserting
in lieu thereof the followtng 'nonprescription medi-
cines, drugs, medtcal'. And on page 3 by deleting
lfne 6 and inserting in lfeu thereof the following
lthfs state tannible personal property other thanf.
And on page 6 by deleting line 30 and fnsertfng in
lieu thereof the following 'tanglble personal propert
other than'. And on page 10 by deleting line 7 and
fnserting in lieu thereof the following lnonprescrip-
tion medicines, drugs and medicalê. Now, to me# Mr.
Speaker and Ladfes and Gentlemen of the House, Amend-
ment //6 to House Bill 2272 makes more sense than any
of those offered previously. It takes the.n in
capital form it takes the tax off of nonprescription
medicines, drugs, whfch is of coursey a direct
UCK'N'.

consumer because that's of the fact...is an addi-
tional charge on these items. Now the ta'x will re-
main on prescription drugs only an; won't be passed
on to the consumer because it's included in the
. ' prices of drugs, I understand, and if we would take '
the tax off of prescription drugs, tbe druggists
probably wouldnît lower tbe prices of drugs that
much or at all. So, this //6s.Amendment //6, removes
the tax from nonprescription medicfnes which will
be a direct benefit to the consumer and they remain
on the prescription drugs only which of course
wouldn't be a benefit to the consumer if they were
removed from tbat. So I move for the adoption of
Amendment //6 to House Bill 2272.'f
Speaker Blair: ''Mr. Williau Walsh.''
Walsh: r'We1l, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the
Eouse, I certainly urge that you support this Amend-
ment. We have three drpggists in the Rouse and I've
heard a11 three of themy I suppose different timer,
but a11 three of them say that sales tax relief on
prescription is a phony. You simply do not get it
because it's not the retail sales it's the service
occupation tax that wefre dealing. And the service
occupation tax is tax . at the wholesale price...
and it simplyy as they have pofnted out so eloquently
is stmply not passed on to the eonsumer. So there
is simply no benefit to thought to having tax relief
for the prescription drugs because the only ones
that that relieves are the druggists. Now I submit
that we ought really follow the dfctates of the
people that know best this subject: the druggists
in the House, and vote to save the state some money.
I think the amount is something in the neighborhood
of seven to ten million dollars. Vote to save tbe
state this so that we can give...meaningful sales

Representative Skinner sponsored this moxnipg. So
I ask you to please support Representative Washburn's
Amendaent and disregard thopghts of party strife and
partisanship and go with Representative Washburn on
this Amendment and vote yes.ll
Speaker Blair: ''Mr. Schlickman.n
Schlfckman: nMr. Speaker and Members of the House, on the
surface this sounds like a merftorious, commendable
Amendment. But I am concerned about the Constitution
that part of the Revenue Article that allows tbe Leg-
lslature to engage fn reasonable, reasonable classi-%. / ffcation. Now there's two kinds of classifications
that I see here. One is tbe matter of drugs and med-
icines being a class. And the other are these taxes
that we referred to as the retailer's occupational - .
- . taxa the use tax, and so on. This will be tbe first
time to my knowledge that this Housi has attempted to '
. further classify or detafl. And I would suggest
that whfle the Amendment appears on éhe surface to
be neritorious that it may, it may very well raise
a constitutfonal Issue causfng the whole B111 or
law, to be struck down at a later time. Seems to
T..e that the amount of money that's involved as to
the retailer's occupatfonal tax ïs relatfvely fnsig-
nificant and that no harm would be done public policy
wise. And therefore to insure the constitutionality
of the Bi11, I would speak against thls Amendment
and respectfully solicit the House's opposition and
defeat of it.''
Speaker Blair: HAny further discussion? Mr. Maragos.d'
Maragos: ''Mr. Speaker, I'm sorry I was a little latey didn't

up at the Revenue Committee. I still can't under-
stand why everybody feels tbat the drpggists cannot
be properly supervised as ordered by the'Department
1of Revenue in this area to se'e that even In the pre-
. scription drugs they can pass on these savings that
they get as a result of the SROT. Now, and as also
as 1as brought up by Representatfve Schlickman,
tbere is a danger to tbe constftdtionality because
that does not meet the uniformfty requirements under
the new Constitution of 1970. So therefore I would
say to you, tread very, very warily in tbls area.
And right now I would say I would be against this
Amendment until we...would able to be-- study it
more closely and see if there's any other way we

Houlihan: HMr. Speakery'l think for the reasons raised by
Representative Maragos and Represenoative Schlfck-
man and the fact that I think we must deal with tbe
druggists not as if they are going to try to circum-
veat the 1aw and the intention of the 1aw but are
i to try to cooperate with this; and further-go ng
more that th/re is a great deal of competition,
there is now a movement aboard by consumers to re-
quire listing of drpgs and the cost and I thfnk with
those things in mind we would be able to have this
passed on. And I would' therefore ask for a no vote
on this Amendment, Amendment #6.M
speaker Blair: MMr. Telcser.''
lelcser: ''Mr. Speaker, Members of the House, with respect
to Amendment //6 to House Bil1 2272, the prior speaker

to the Amendment but in my judgment none of them
really get to the heart of what we#re talking about

figbting valiantly to keep his the way he would
like to have it ultimately passdd. I respect the
Sponsor's fight and his courageous'efforts to keep1
the Bill the way it should be but as I have learned
' ' after some years experience of handltng Bills for '
tlae Executive branch of government there are times
when the issue itself transcends partisan politics
and the politics of the second floor versus the
needs of the people. And this is indeed one of those
times. I think the Sponsor of this Bill ougbt to
be fn favor of thfs Amendment because the substance
ïs eminently fair. For those who wish to discuss
* the constitutional questions which may or may not
arise with respect to that Amendment, I'd only re-
flect back upon the many debates and Bills wefve
seen before this Legislature and know that those
issues remain for the court. And I understand there
are 59 lawyers fn this Body, I'm sure that ff each . .
of the 59 lawyers would give their opinion about
what'the courts would or would not do witb respect
to this matter and other matterss we'd have perhaps
a 159 honest opinions. So I don't think that is
a point at all. And of course the spectre...the
spectre which another prfor speaker raises is one
which I think a11 of us should be frightened of.
If this Amendment fails: I tbink a prior speaker has
suggested that state government would then try to
regulate prices and see if the practicing pharmacists
will gfve tax relief by reducing thetr prices to the
consumer. I assume that means 500 investigators or
Revenue Department agents who wfll stand on the
shoulder of every retailer to see if or if not he
is passing on, quote, sales tax relief unquote, to
the consumer. I wonder the prior speaker would ac-
' cept their Amendments to provide for price investi-

gation of attorneys to see how much tbey charge
their clients for their variety of lenal work. I
' think perhaps if this Amendwent is adopted the
Sponsor will hold the Bill on Second Reading so I
could prepare an Amendment to have tax relief for
the consume.r with respect to the lègal fees which
are.being charged to consumers. That fs a frighten-
ing aspect of this legislation and the mere thought
that someone on the other side of the aisle is trying
to concoct a scheme whereby tke Revenue Department
will investtgate the retail activities in this state
is fn itself reason to vote for adoption of this
Amendment. Thfs Amendment fs a fafr one. Thfs Amendk
ment will take away tax relief from a group of citin..
. zens who are not even seeking that relief. I can
tell eacb and everyone Member of this House that as '
a retail pharmacist and someone who owned and operate -'
- his own pharmacy for 16 years the rœtailer w1l1 not
pass on the few pennies of relief to the consumer.
It's not going to happen. The prior speakers who
said this was relief for tbe practicing pharmacists
only were telling you the trutb. This Amendment
would make this legislation equftable. It would keep
tax relief where it belongs, that is with the consumer
and would make the legislation more fiscally respon-
sible. Amendment ?/2 which was adopted earlier would
cost the state more money. Thfs would take about
$7,000,000 out of the B1l1 and protect the General
Revenue Punds to the tune of that $7.000,000. I sin-
cerely hope that those of you on b0th sides of the
aisle who bave given careful consideration to this
. legfslatfve matter and who strongly belfeve fn the
separation of powery that is that the legislatfve
branch of government ought to make its decision with-
out regard to what the courts >ay or may not do,

kee Mr. Ryan.''A
Ryan: HWe1ly Mr. Speakery Ladfes and Gentlemen of the House,
Re/resentative Telcser laid tbis Amen'dment out pretty
well. And 1et Oe state my position here so it's
perfectly clear. I should be in favor of Represen-
tative lloulihan's Bill as it was introduced. And it1
absolutely right that would certainly line my pockets
and every other retail pharmacist in the state of
Illinois. But as it stands, the average savings
that's going to be passed on by taking the drpg...tax
off of prescription drugs is a $1.93 per household
pez year. Now if that's meaningful tax reliefs I've
missed my guess. The second pofnt I'd like to make
is that if anybody bas poor people that they repre-
sent in thefr district they certainly should endorse
the Amendment that's presented here by Representative
Washburn. The dollars that are spent for nonprescrip
tion drugs'that are taxed by the first aid supplies,
the aspirins, the nose dropss everybody has to buy
at a drug store. The prescription drugs are paid
for by the people on welfare by the Welfare Depart-
ment, the Department of Public Afd. Their nonpre-
scription drugs are not paid for and so you now have
some tax that's going to...relief that's going to
reacb into the poor communities and do them some
benefit with this Amendment. And I would certainly
encourage your aye vote on Amendment //6.''

have to file a lspecific amount' from a Department
or are you in accordance with our Rule if you file
a fiscal note with the amount written fn. Nolzp the
Speaker the other day said you could only ffle any
amount. Now I want.to make that clear. What: act-
ually in fact, is proper and in accordance with the
Rule's when you file a fiscal note?'î
Speaker Blair: HWe11y in the first placey 1et me say that
I don't think that question from you at thfs time
is pertinent simply because the particular Bi11 to
which you refer is under control of another Member
on this floor. The actual question from a parlia-
1 mentary standpoint is not raised untfl a fiscal
note is actually here. And the Gentleman that re-'
quested it, if he has any complaints about whether
or not it meets the statutory requiremeats I assume
be would raise that at the time thae it comes up.
So I suggest that your inquiry at this time is pre-
mature. However, when that time becomes approp.ri-t .
Ii ate if you would care to look at chapter 63, 42.31l! of the Illinois Revised Statute, you'll find thati
it requires tha2 tbe SPOnSOr Of each Bf11 -#Rbàll.pre-
sent a copy of tbe Bill with his request for a fis-
ca1 note to the board: commission, department: ag- '
ency or other entity of the state which is to re-
ceive orrextend the appropriation proposed or which
is responsible for collection of the revenue pro-
posed to the increase or decrease, or to be levied
or provided for. The fiscal note shall be prepared
by this board, commissiony department: agency or
entity and furnished to the Sponsor of the Bill

asking What this Bill does?''

Shea: HDoes this Amendment, if adopted and enacted into 1aw
will this do away with the Department's equalizing
asessments througbout the state?''
Skinner: ''Yes, except it will...excuse mey it will do alzay
wfth the county by county equalizing buL it will
allow people who lfve in tax distrfcts that 1ie in
more than one county to apply to the Department and'
request an allocation of the levy between the two
counties depending on the market value of the prop-
erty in each county.''
Shea: ''Am I correct in assuming, in nonhome rule counties -

correct
Slcinner: ''Ikells certainly.n
Shea: ''Am I then to understand that if the assessor has come
up with an equalized assessed valuation of say a
million dollars to the county and they have a multf-
plier of 1.25, they then would have a million, two-
Jive plusp times the tax rate to come up with the

throughout the state?''
Skinner: ''What it would do is say to the local assessor, and
the local township county officials, it would...

explained to me by some of my colleagues like Mr.#
McMasters and some of the Gentlemen downstate,
where they are presently at the top of their rates.''
Skinner: HOf course, ft would doy ft would do virtually
nothing in most the downstate counties because I
think most of them have a multiplier of one or more.
Excuse me. one or less.''
Shea: nWe11, what about those that are one or more?''
Skinner: ''Wel1x those that are above would have the choice
of raising their assessments locally. Thev could
do that.''
Shea: ''Yeah, but this takes effect when?î' - -.
' Skinner: ''We11y I would assume since it...you know, on the
equalfzation things it's a very good question when
it takes effect. It generally takes effect just
about whenever the Department wants it to take effect.

it take effect this year. I'm certainly not sug-

become immediately effective...ltapel...and when
they went to equalize the '75 taxes...ttape)

Skinner: HFollowing implementation there will not be an '
equalization factor on a county by county basis.
Evety county will be on its olzn.'' '
Maragos: ''Yeah. Thens what is the LCA going to have to do
in this regard, then? Does it have any control
over the assessed valuations of any county after
this?f'
Skinner: HThey will only have control over the proportioaing
of taxes for tax districts tbat overlap county lines
and tn which people, either the tax district or the
revenues, make a request that the Department come
in and equalize. If there is no request they will

Skinner: ''The Elgin School Distrfct this year has requested
that the Department equalized assessmenty the equal-
ized assessment between Cook County and Kane County,

Skinner: MWe11y tbe...as you remember. House Bill 999 was
limtted to those counties that classified real es-
tate taxes by ordtnance and those surrounding those
counties. And thae basfcally œeans the metropolf- . -
tan area, the RTA region. What this Bill does 'is
take away the population divisfony the 200,000 and
the classification requirements by ordinance, and
says that anyone in the state may make this request.
And from hearings that the Illinois Economic and
Fiseal Commission beld down 1n, I thfnk it was
Marion, last year there certafnly, you know, there
certainly were requests from other parts of the
state. Not many, but tbere were some.''
Maragos: 'dBut let's...let's...the thing that bothers me and
the tbing you say you're taking it offy then some-
body's going to ask for it. Then what effect will
that have, youfre still havfng equalization factors,

Maragos: ''What if there's been objections between.'..are there
provisions for a hearfng before this goes on? Or
what is the structure: how is this going to be struc-
tured before it takes place?''
Skinner: NI think the provision that we built in which was
run by the Cook County Assessorls office before it
. was passed last year was that the Department if it
desired could hold a hearing and receive sales ratio
data. That is comparisons...studies comparing the' ,
assessment to sale data if it desired to do so. I
dfdn't desire to do .so...H
Maragos: HNo: that's not my problem, Mr. Skinner. My prob-
1em is this, assuming onea..one taxing body or one
municfpality wants to ask for this...as a result ask' -.
' for this equalization factor be put. What ff another
body: another municfpality or a sfmilar school dis-
trict does not want to put on: may affect them be-
cause the county or the other distrfct whfch they
affect might indirectly go into other areas beyond
those who are asking for it. And thereforea what...
what structure do you have set up for full hearing
. on this just before the LGA comes in on...that's what
. . Iem asking- .''
Skinner: ''The problem that you're outlining, I don't believe:
could exist because each district will be, you know
the request for school district A will come drom
either the people, from elther the school dïstrïct
or twenty-five, I think it's twenty-five local tax-
payels and the equalization will be for that one

increase, Director Miller said June 17, from the' .
Chicago Daily News that he 'doesn't need the extra
money and the Agency is darn inefflcient with what
it does have that until we're dofpg a better job
we shouldn't ask for more. Now we are invthe' process
Jf gfvfng them $3,000:000 more and I'D sure we'll
get the same response. The General Assembly is
being asked to appropriate this $302,000. What we
are not being told is that thts is a three year
program whick will actually involve some $8,000,000
in federal money and $940,000 in state funds for a
total cost of over $9,400,000. And as with most of
these federal seed money programs the General Assembl
will be eventually asked to totally fund the entire
program. We feel that this Amendmenty if we adopt
this Amendment and take this money out, will have
ample time then to study whether this program ,can be
adequately undertaken by a department which has aï-. '
ready said lt doesn't need any more money and is
operated inefficiently. Now, 1et me point out one
other thing, the $302,000 in state match money for
a purchase of care grant fs for 175...175 adjucated
juvenile offenders. With this $3,000,000 this means
a cost per offender of $17,163. It would seem to
me that this money could be better used for a less
expensive and higher impact delinquency program rather
than this expens.ive program, $17,000 per youth. The
long term fiscal implications of this grant are very
uneertain. It was hastily conceived. It has not
been studied and it is possible that the state wi11
be forced to underwrtte the entire cost of this in
three years which will be some $3,000,000. And I
repsectfully request that we adopt Committee Amend-
ment //1 which would remove this $302,000 for the
Department of children and Family Servicesal'

s the particular Anendment we are addressing and which
'?. I rise in support ofy Amendment //1 to House B1ll
$ 2863. About 18 months ago a gentleman came to I11i-
nois from Massachusettes Corrections Department, notyy..j;b.'.l Children and Family Services, and the first thing
he indfcated to the State of Illdnois was that ia. .: !
'

'J over the Juventle corrections System of the State of
1 d that statement to Corrections be, Illinois. He ma e , -.
-.2 made it to the Governor, there are several agreements
'>. going on. Because I have three juvenile correction'
; institutions in my district and three senior adult*
j' offender fnstitutions in my district, I m more than'' casually concerned. Tbis House is probably aware of
)'' the running battle that I have also had with Children
and Family Services on other matters. But thfs isk '

This is the middle of the road. This is the type
of tbing that we want. 'This will not go .directly
for more services by the Department of Children and
Family Servicesy it will go to buy that thfrd alter-
native. This is what I would think those who have
argued against thfs Amendment, against this service
rathery and for this Amendment deleting that would
really want. I think that everyone of you would
want to have this service provided. If you adopt thi

have a lfttle concrere example of these polfcies o-f
Doctor Miller. We have ln Decatur a home for boys
called Cantrall Hall. When Doceor Mlller caue here
to the State of Illinois and started to institute .
his new polfcfes, Cantrall Eall was redueed approxf-
matel/ one-third by the replacement of boys intoother facilitiesy fnto foster homes. Now I don't
have, really, a 1ot of quarrel with that; the idea
is excellent. Nov the boys we had there were from
broken homes, they were not boys that had to have
correctfonal...and not boys that had criminal records
. . .participate in criminal activities. Now we have
some boys, because of this placement and change of
policy, with records going into this home. I had
calls and letters from the neighbors who informed
me that they ltved near this Cantrall Hall and these
boys are stealing bicycles, vandalizing the property,

Duff: MMr. Speaker, Ladfes and Centlemen of the House: what
we're talking about here it seems to me fs one of

fronted .1th over the next year or two because
Illinois hasy in facty over the past ten or twenty
years mishandled the institutionalizatfon of people.
This fs true ïn the Department of Correctfons. This
true in the Department of Children and Family
Services. This is trùe in the Department of Mental
Hea1th. It is not solely to be set necessarily on
the back of the present directors of any of tbese
three areas. And I am not absolving h1m by saying
that for the faults for which I'm sure we can find.
But the simple fact is that over the recent decade
Illinois has fallen down on handling...excuse me,-

Duff: ''We11, Mr. Speaker, kk I may continue, 1...1 safd in
summary that what we are dealing with in Illinois
in the next year and a half is going to be the re-
evatuation of our whole institutional program. Nowy
I'm not happy with a 1ot of the things that Mr.
Miller ls doing or has doae, but 1111 tell you that
1 ted to ciild'and Family Servicesour institutions re a
are inadequate right now in the hands of a genius,
tn the hands of a saint. And 1...1 suggest to you
that no matter what we Day choose to do as a result
of legislative investigation with the Department of
Child and Family Services. Representative Getty is
absolutely rigkt in this regard. If youfre unhappy
wftb the institutïons as they stand, if you don't
want to see youpg children who shouldn't be put into
Jnstitutions and crimfnalized, brutalized, by a sys-
tem that we, this General Assemblyy this Legislaturey
is responsible partly for having allowed then you-
should support Representative Getty's posftion on
this. Because there are children that should not
be put out on the street; they have particular prob-
lems, they are not crlminals yet but they have been
found to...anti-social behavior, and have perhaps
an emotional or home problem which allows for...which
requires a certaia kind of handling that 1ze don't
have. Now this is the only alternative, third al-
ternative if you will, that we fn Illinois are going
to be able to take care of some of these children
in the interim while we find solutions to a much
larger problem.n

Keading at the last day of tbis Legislature lqst

of the present injustice which has occurred in ad-
minlstration of the Financial Assistance Act for
nonpublic institutions of higher learning. That
isy the private colleges. The present act awards
to the various eligible nonpublfc institutions a
grant administered by the Board of Higher Educa-
tion which is based upon a formula for $100 for
every freshman and sophomore who is a Illinois
State Scholarship Award Winner. And $200 for every
junior and senior who is an Illinois resident. The
present Amendment will adjust this formula so that
both freshmen and sophomores as well junior and
senior will be based on Illinois residence. The .
second important affect of the Amendment of thfs
Bill will be to remedy the fact that after the pres-
ent tfme tbe full appropriation has not been availabl

amended to $90,000. This will per'mit the buyfng .

in the area of ForgottoAia which some of you have
heard about. .And this Bill passed Appropriation
Committee without any dissenting vo'tes. Mr.
Speaker, 1111 be glad to answer any questions and
w111 appreciate a favorable vote.îf
Speaker Barnes: lo s there any discussion? The Gentleman
frcm Cook, Mr....DuPage, I'm sorry, Mr. Schneider.n
Schneider: ''AII right: thank youy distinguished Speaker. .
Clarence, on public television one of my fear. is
simply that when the state begins to fund those ' . -
kinds of programs they also seem to carry with it
a kind of a censorship authority that we have seen
occurring on the federal level and how it has af-
fected Channel 11 in Chicago. So my real feary
and I don't know if itfs included in the Bill and
I apologize for not having a copy of it. I want
to know what kind of regulations the state is going
to impose on that publfc television, I would prefer
that there will be none. I would prefer that
Western Illinois. if it's zoinz to trulv conduct
a public television station. be Riven the opportunitv
to make a determination as to what kinds of progxams.
without state interference. in terms of monev. Now
I'm sure, it's probably not spelled out in the Bill
but'is there anv kind of fndication. as you under-
stand it. whether or not there will be that kind of
freedom and that latitude qiven to them without us

a verv zood question to brinq up and hopefully that
the state would noL interfere on telliaa what thev
could do and what they could not do. I would hope
that the zovernment would not interfere into this.
Now we have many of these stations. Thfs happens
to be one area that has no TV educational about '#
17 counties would be affected by this and it would
be operated similar to the carbondale and many other
places where they bave educatfonal TV.N
Schneider: ''We11, I would hope youlre right and 1:11 take
your word for it. Thank you.''
Speaker Barnes: ''The Gentlenan from Dupage, Mr. Hudson-''

Neff: HNo, it isn't. I can give it to you but...but I've
seen the charts on it, this is one of the few areas
that isn't covered by this. I think that...l'm
pretty sure at DeKalb they have it, somebody else.
might answer that but...and you may know, Ray. I
believe they have educational TV at DeKalb. I know
they have it at Carbondale and it's been established
in several areas at state universities.''
Hudson: ''Well, I'm just wondering about the proliferation of
' this idea. I don't know that...l'm just wondering
about the type of programs, Clarence, that's all.
And these, after all, are going to be at taxpayer's
expense. I don't know too much about the programs
that are already being shown, maybe you do. And

Neff: HRay, these would be strictly educational programs
as I understand it and talk to the people, they would
be adult educatioa as well as for younger people.
And it's strictly educational proarams and many
dffferent subjects, the same as they're teaching
certain subjects that are taught ïn college would

to explain my no vote. I think Representative
' Schnefder...hit the nail on the head when he asked
if there was going to be any controls, and apparently
there arenft gofng to be any. Well, I say. if they'r
gofng to expend public money there probably ought
to be some controls because I don 't thfnk they ought
to be spendfng public dollars to push fn the realm
of free speech and academic freedoms certain ideasl
the Reneral public might not accept. Therefore. I
think but however I do agree that such an educational
program ought to be freely run; ought to be in tbe
realm of academic freedom and ought to be involved
witb free speech. And I think the only way to assure
this is to rely on voluntary funding. And...youeve
seeny it's been charged anyway as far as Channel 11

These were Senate Bills that passed out of the Senate

areas to have this Bistate Commissyon appointed.t':
'
'
Hudson: l'Wel1, Bil1. I never noticed...according to the B111
itself as I read itz among its duties is to adopt
public plais, policiesy.programs and activities of
bir'egional significance. Now it would seem to me
that the RTA is interested in 'plans and programs
of biregional significance. And here comes another
planniag agencyy the Bistate Plannfng Agency, which
is interested fn the same thïpg. And it seems ac-#
cording to the Bill, to serve as the plannipg policy
body for biregional matters. And it's hard for me
to understand how RTA, or how NIPC, could do much
wtthout the approval of the Bistate Planntng Agency.'

another layer ofngovernment here whfch we can be* y,concerned about, made up of appointees again. .
Mahar: ''We11, 1et me go back a minute and say that youîll -
recall I stated earlier that the members of the
Commission are also members of NIPC. And youlll find
that they are part of the NIPC organizatfon and so
rather than having a agency superimposey as was earl-
ier suggested, this...these people are part of the
overall .agency and they become the necessary require-
ment for the 1=95 Review of Federal Funds coming into
. . .1n the State of Illfnois vhere the State of In-
diana is involved. I thfnk we#re talking about the
RTA...at least ites my fnterpretatfon 'of the RTA '
at tbe present time. Werre not talking about a bi-
state operation. Or maybe sometime in the future'
we Dight be talking about bistate but at least at
the moment I don't think we are.''

' how the funds are goipg to be allocated. Bear in '
mind that this is a 12 man commission. It requires
8 to take any particular action. So in any action
that you have you must have at least two from the
other state. This is merely to move the federal
fundss requirement of the federal government, in
order to receive approval of this agency is required.
And I think that the structure that bas finally been
agreed upon after great deliberation is one that
eliminates this level of government theybre thinking
about which is something that will miminize NIPC
NERPC in their own riRht.'' '

why I asked you if this agency had the power to enter
into contractual agreements. The way I read the
',1il1 it would seem to have that power. Now tbe
Attorney Ceneral bas indicated that NIPC, ltself,
as a commission, does not have that power. This came
out on June 7 and I have the article here. So that
NIPC doesn't have the power. I wonder how the Bi-
state Planning Agencies have any such power?''
Mahar: fîWell we have a recent opinion just in the last couple
of weeks from the Attorney General in whfch he re-
commends that thts the proper approach to this type'
of an operation. In other words, he says that as
opposed a group appointed by the government directly.

continue to pass legislation which. will undercut our
own preroaatives, .; which will und erc-ut our own rev
sponsfbilities to the people, which wîll undercut
our ability to control in any way the taxes', et cet-
eras that our constituents expect then we wfll con-
tinue to vote for these supergovernaental agencfes.
But surely this is another case of t%e federal:
government demaading that somethtpg be done. And
ùhat is to be done is to create a supergovernmental
agency more easfly or controlled by the federal
government. And I will say that this fs a step away
from state sovereigncyz it is an erosion of our
federal system, and if w: continue to do thfs we will
fir.d, truly, that this country is divided into region
controlled by the federal government and not our .

to point out that this is a vehicle that is abso-

Speaker Barnes: HMr. Naddell.''
Waddell: HMr. Speaker and tadies and Gentlemen, I thfnk that
the thing youVre looking here is the dissipation of
your own powero' Those of you who have on your
shoulders the weight of the State of Illinoisy you - .
. want to remember there are lfke individuals ln the
State of Indiana that feel just exactly the way we ' '
do. And that is the fact that the federal govern-
ment belongs in the federal government harness and
certainly not in the harness of the State of 111-
fnois. And as thfs continues and as the supergover-
nments are eroding your power what theyfre sayinq to
'rou is 'youAre not necessary here to represent the
will of your people'. Instead of thats they take
tbeir own power plus the fact that they then usurp
vour power on state levels bv creatinR such monstros-
' ities. I urge a no votee''
Speaker Blair: nHave a11 vote...Mr. Mann.''
Mann: 'Vlr. Speaker. Members of the House. I'm sure that many
of you will be surprised at what Iîm about to sav

of NIPC. I've stated them recently. I want to re-
state them. I doa't know what NIPC stands for. I
donlt know whether NIPC'S involvement wit'h Indiana '
is going to mean a diminution of pollutfon in Lake '
Micbigan or an increase of pollution in Lake Mich-
igap. What I#m saylng ts that I think we opght to
go slow in this Bill 'tfl we get some redefinition
of exactly where XIPC is. When I first came to
Sprfngfield NIPC stood for some principles, you
might have agreed with them, you might bave disagreed
with them but at least you knew wbere they stand.
At tbe present time I do not know where this organ-
izatfon stands. I don't think it speaks for the
people of northeastern Illinois any longer. And
I'm saying that I:d like to see some red lights up
there or some present lights, maybe not to kill the ' -.
- Bill for this Session but to get some definition
from NIFC and from the Sponsor about where thfs or-
ganization is goipg. I have a feeling, I have a
feeling from my immediate experience with it that
rather than work ln behalf of anti-pollution efforts
it's working in behalf of special interests. I don't
see it standing up on a 1ot of fssues that it ought
co. I don't see it beipg responsive to this 111-
inois General Assembly.' We created NIPC. We have
a right...ttapel...H
Speaker Blair: l1Al1 right. Okay, Mr. Mann. Mr. Palmer.l'
Palmer: ''Mr. Speaker and Ladfes and Centlemen of the House,
those persons that are voting green up there ought
to take another good look at this thing. Even NIPC
doesnlt have the powers that the...this superstruc-

long time. And I should like to ask you the ques-
tiony. does it include zoning? Sunely they have the
powec to take action and tbose words were not in-
cluded in the Northeastern Illinois Planning Com-
mfssfon Aci. They have the power to plan and plan-
ning usually involves the question of zoning. So
I think we ought...like Representative Mann has said,
we ought to go slow on this thing. Let's study ft
out. If it's goods let's come back next year and
take a look at it. Thank you.n
Speaker Blair; ''Mr. Ron Hoffman.''
Hoffman: HThank you, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of
the House, I was going to rise at the time to yield
to Representative Mann because I find I1m in full
accord to his arguments. At the present time none
of us fully understand the direction of the import
that NIPC is supposed to be portraying. And the .
testimony that evolved in Commfttee on this Bill -
creates an awesome spectrum to those of us that
listened to it. We are creating another superagency.
One that is going to be above NIPC and here we bave
yet to find a controlling factor for NIPC. I think
those green lights on the boardy if there is as
much doubt in everybody else's mind as th.ere is in
mine should at least be voting present because this
superstructure provides: in my mind not only a
creature that could create and has the capability
of creating tbe crosstown but a structure that will
not be subservient to the wishes of this Illinois
Ceneral Assembly. And I would solicit either a
no vote or a present vote on this proposition.''

a member of tbe Advisory Commfttee to NIPC I have
'fought this move a11 these vears but I aa convinced
now thac a board of this nature does have to be set
up. 1'd like to point out to you a's.tbe federal
government makes a statement, asd they haNe every
six montbs, cut off for a while the federal funds
coming into the northeastern area. And they say ff
we do not set up a board like thts that they are
joing to keep that on, that 11d on, and the federal
funds vi11 not come into this area. I'd lfke to
point out to those people that say the Legislature
has no control. Well I feel very coafident that the
Legislature does bave sone control in thts particular
z area . Maybe wz haven't exerted ourselves and I think
that you have pfcked the wrong Bi11 to attack. Ifm
sure that if you come up with some legislation that
. wouldy in my mind anyway, have a respective nature.
in regards to NIPC as such, well I wouldn't be so -
$ much opposed to that. I just say that you have
picked the wrong Bill to attack. I think thls fs a
necessity. It's a needed necessity for the north-
eastern area and I believe that this Bill should pass-'

it is a necessary vehicle and I want to call the -
attention to this Body of the fact that recently
the Attorney General's Office has indicated that
a vehicle such as the Bfstate Commission is needed
in order for Illinois to participate in any bistate
planning activity. I wfsh to further call the
attention of this Committeey that this was approved
by the Legislative Advfsory Committee to NIPC after
a series of negotfations between Governor Walker
and the City of Chicago and the suburban and collar
county members of NIPC. I tbink that we do have
protectfon here in the fact that this fs a Com-
mittee that will consist of two appointees by the'
Governor; two from the City of Chicago and two from
the local governments. I don't think that we should
have the fear that bas been fndicated here on this

herrings in this thing here thfs afternoon. Number
one, is the fact that this is the vehfcle by which '
the crosstown expressway is going to be built. But
f ' 11 the Governor's Office has agreed thatfirst o a
this particular Bill is approprfate. I don't think
he'd want to have any part of it if he felt that it
was a vehicle of the crosstown expressway. Seqon-
d1y we talked all week and ever since I've been
down here about federal funds. There's a great
grab for federal funds. Everybody wants federal
funds for 1aw enforcement, for educationx for the
farms, for their businessesy everybody. It just
seems to me that we we're not consistent. When
tbls is a vehicle by which we're going to have fed- ' -'
- eral funds would affect a bistate area, that affect
Illinois and Indfana. And when the federal govern-
ment said to us you must set up this type of com-
mission if you want to get those federal funds: i:
seetts to me that we shouldn't be thinking about that
at a1.1. It's just the same thing as I recall.
last fall that the federal government said if you
want to get federal funds for the highway you better
pass the 55 mfle an hour speed limit. So, I would
urge some more green lights on that board.''

Walsh: HMr. Speakery my intentfon to make a motion to undo
the damage that was done the other day by the failure
of my motion to pass to keep Bills alive that were
on tbe calendar. And I therefore move tbat Bills, Resolu
tions and Motions that were tabled as a result of
our failure to extend the expiration date on Friday -'
- and that would have died Saturday and also that ex-
pired as a result of our failure to suspend the
appropriate rules yesterday, be taken from the table
and placed on the Calendar. And, Mr. Speaker, thts
this takes a l07 votesoî'

Speaker Blair: HWe11, why don't we wait 'til we.- is that .
in conjunction with the adoption of the motion?''
Fleck) 'îNo, just a point of...I'd just like...î'
Speaker Blair: ''Can I get this...can I get 'em back on the
'Calendar first? I3m not there yet. Mr...oh...
Do I have leave to use the Attendance Roll Call to
place a1l those matter that otherwfse would have
expired last Sunday back on ie Roll Call Service
Aid for one more day through tomorrov? And that
takes a 107 votes...there's leave been asked to
use the Attendance Roll Call. So if there's not ob-
jection we?ll use the Attendance Roll Call. Now.
those are then back on the' Calendar in their respec-- ..e*
- tive orders of business as they we<e on when they
k -came off the Calendar. And the Cler has put out
a list that is not, I think completey which says
the following are tabled pursuant to Rule 37-C:
thirty days. I think it needs.-.there aeeds to be
some additions on that but wedll catch those for
sure tommorrow. sow, we'll go back to Mr. Fleck's
.juestion about House Bills on Second Reading. Was
that your questton?''
Fleck: H'fhatîs correct.''
Speaker Blair: ''Yeah. Okay. And Mr. Choate wanted to re-
spond to Mr. Fleck, I think. He was raising the
question about Mr. Harris' saying that wedre leaving
Thursday and...''
Choate: ''I wotlld only potnt out, I would only point out that
when the Senate talks about adjourning by Thursday
I think tbat it's a little bit of a rumor that maybe
is not too well founded. And if they talk about the

Billsy 17...some 17 Senate Bills' only reached
this House Just a few moments ago. The largesty
the largest state department budget is sti'll in
the Senate, that is the Department of Transporta-
' tion. So Iîve...personallyy wouldn't worry too
much about Thursday, Charlie. Secondly, most of
those Bills that are beiag revived are on the order
of Second Readfng, Second Legislative Day, which
means that they can be passed and sent to the Senate
tomorrow.''
Fleck: 'lYeah, welly Mr. Speaker, if .the Senate moves that
other Bill tomorrow, we get it, what if they go
home and come back in about two or three days? .
I#m concerned. Is it possible to read Houtle Bills
that were on Second Reading yesterday? Read them...
'at least read them a second time todays now if there. .*
Speaker Blair: ''Yeah, Iem just checking with'the Clerk to
see how many of them have been read a second timew
I assume it would not be a problem if we were to read
them a second time and leave them on Second until...
tomorrow breaks through maybe we can do something
else. Mr. Walsh.''
Walsh: ''If we need a supplementary calendar, if we did that
Mr. Speaker, to show those Bills fn the position
they're on. And I would assume. as Representative
Tuerk pointed out to me, that Bills that were on
' First Legislative Day on Friday or Sunday would be
on Second Legislative Day the...or on Second Reading
straight on the Calendar because theylve had their
First Legislative Day.''
' Speaker Blair: ''Wel1 I'm...why don't we...I can gfve in...

motion to revive the Bill that's removing any ne-
cessity that they appear on the Calendar. And if
that's impossible why couldn't we have a supplemen-
tary Calendar and those that have been read Second
proceed to have it decided today. In so doing you

appeared. Now, I submit Mr. Speaker, that a couple
of these Bills that a couple of these Bills, or
thlee of these Bills were on First Legislative Day.
And I interpret your remarks that they go back
on the Calendar fn the same order, they would go
back on Flrst Legislative Day.î'
Speaker Blafr: 'îWe1l ...11i1 u ,1 Tuerk: Well, Mr. Speakér, I m not talking about this parti-i

that 2480, 2487 and 2665 would be read second time

that those Bills were on First Legislative Day on
Sunday and inasmuch as we had not suspended the

those Bills would have been that they were motions; '
to discharge which had passed but the...following
the passage of those and their journey to the Calen- .

Tuerk: HIpell, at this point I'm not sure I understand what -
your motion is, Mr. Shea.fî
Shea: f'If: according to what you said and what I understand
. 'Mr. Walsh's statement was, the three Bills that I
just mentioned if everythfng came back to where we
were would come on the Calendar as of today on the

I've asked is that those three Bills be advanced to

the Sunday Calendar was an improper Calendar so
therefore they would have to com'e on the Calendar
on First Legislatfve Day.'' *
Speaker Blair: ''Nelly yeah, the Gentleman's 'point is well
taken. Actuallyy those Bills, at least Mr.
2480 and 2487 were brought out under the provisions
of Rule 33-C which does stay with 89 votes. And
that...that does say that the Bills comlng out under
that provision will be on the Calendar on the Order
of Second Reading First Legislative Day.'î
Shea: HI don't think anybody is disputfng that fact with
anybody.ll
Speaker Blair: nYeah, but if you .if you were on First Leg-
islative Day today and were able to come in aad put
a motion today and say that you want, now, to have
those Bills on Second Readingy it would be a sub-
version of 33-6 because 33-C says that you can sus-
pend that provision only upon a 107 votes. So I
don't see how you're going to get...to do' what you
want to do, as I see it, it's going to take a 107
voLes.''
Shea: nWell, here, Mr. Speaker, 1et me explain why'l only
tbink it takes a '89. The Bills were moved out of
Committee on Friday, assuming for a minute that today
is the First Legislative Day after Friday, they
would appear on them..calendar today on the order

Speaker Blair: ''Yeah, Mr. Walsh-''
Walsh: HWe11, 1et me say that I resent that. He's suggest-
ing that there was some kind of an agreement tbat
we would take Bills and put them on an order on - -.
- the Calendar where they did not belong. Tbere was
no such agreement. 0ur agreement was that we
would attempt to uado the damage done by not sus-
pending the rules Friday and Sunday and that's
exactly what we did. There was no suggestion that
we would take Bills from an order of business where
they had not been nor would we suspend rules in
order to do that. So I resent the suggestion that
we had an agreement to somethfng like that. That
is simply not accurate.''

Speaker Blair: ''We11, 1...1 think that the Najority Leader's
comment is well taken. The...before the motion was
adopted by using the Attendance Roll Call these par-
ticular Bills were not on Second Reading Second Day.
At best they were on Second Reading First Legisla-
tive Day and when we restore them to the Calendar,
we'd be restoring them to the Calendar on the basis
of Second Reading First Legislative Day. Now, the
motion has been put and...Mr. Hanahan.'f
Hanahan: ''Mr. Speaker, I think very accurately the word is .
. damage. The damage that was done was to be undone.
Now we could play around with whether we have tech- '
nicalities or not but the issue before is on the
word damage. Had no damage been done we would cer-
tainly have these Bills before us probably right now
on Third Reading. The issue is not whether or not
there's a technicality we have to bridge but whether
'r not the agreement included to undo the damage
that has been done. Now tbere are three Bills that
webre talking about...happen to be very important
Bills. I would just suggest that in any manner
that has to be done, the damage be undone by supply-
ing the l07 votes so that we can go about the busi-
ness of the House. And I urge that the motion be
taken, it is in writing to suspend the rule, and if
it takes a 107 votes I#m hopeful that there are a
107 Members of the General Assembly here present
that would support this motion to move two Bills

be suspended so that the Gentlemen may accomplfsh
the purpose which they seek and that is, as Terrible
Tommy said, undo...undo the damage that was done
by somebody over there. A11 those in .favor vote
aye and the opposed no. Mr. Hanahan.''
Hanahan: rMr. Speaker and Members of the House, in .a11 fair-
ness and in a11 justice that has ever been asked of
any Member of this House, I'd like to add any Memfer
bere that feels very justified in voting no on an
issue of a techntcality and placed in the way of
the very hopes, the very aspirations, the very live-
lthoods of first of a11 people'who are unemployed,
not because tbey want to be unemployed, not because
theybre too lazy to work, not because they have any-
thing to do with the economy but because they are
unemployed because there's no work. That we have
a Bill here now, on a technicalïty, needs your help.
implore some Members tbat have had the opportunity
to work and to work hard, and to see somebody who
is injured and see somebody who had a bad accident
on a job, and ask of them, if it would be fair to
them, on a technicalityy not to vote rfght now to
' have these Bills at least heard and given a fair
hearing on Second Reading tomorrow...Third Reading

tomorrow . I implore you, that if you: in a1l things
that are Just we have done a 1ot of good this Ses- .
sion. Let's not'stop now when it really counts'
to move unemployment comp and workmen's çomp to the
posture that if you want to vote no on these final
issues, that if you feel in your heart that the
issue deserves a red vote: do that at the proper
tfme. At the time on Third Reading when youVre
conscïence dictates you. But at a time like this I
implore you in behalf of working people, workiûg
men and women, that desperately need to catch up
witb the inflations desperately need a little bit of
more money for their unemployment compensation: or
a little bit better benefit, a little bit more
money when they're injured and off of work. I urge
you to vote an aye vote. Give these people tbat
can't be here the opportunity to at least .:ave their
day in court on Third Reading. I urge an aye vote.r'
Speaker Blair: ''Mr. Tuerk.l' -
Tuerk: ''Mr. Speaker and Members of the House, listening to
Mr. Hanahan moves me. We have heard these Bflls
in Committee: they had a full hearing. An honest
and long hearfng last week. The report of the '
Committee was do not pass. N0w on Friday, it's
trueytbey put the motion and was successful fn

of this House and out of the Senate, increases in
both the Unemployment Compensation Bills and the
Workmenls Compensation Bills with.the quote 'under-
standfng' uaquote that this was fncreases in the
benefit that would continue for the next two years.

full hearing, an honest hearing and ft was the
wfll of the Committee to vote do not pass. Now,
he says we're voting on a technicaxity. He says
we're trying to undo the damage. l'he damage that
was done by theée Bills and other Bills was done
by somebody on his side of the aisle. Now whether
or not you waat accept that, thatîs one thing, but th
fact remains I#m not arguing strictly on a techni-
cality, I#m just saying that the orderly procedure
o'f this is to put these back on the Calendar in the
position they went off the Calendar. And that is,
on Ffrst Legislative Day. And think that's vhere
they belong. They're important Bills. They're
important fssues. And therefore I thfnk this House
ought to have at least tbat much more time to really
study these Bills so that they...at the pofnt that .
when they get to the passage stage are abfe to cast
an informed vote.f' -
Spçaker Blair: nMr. Willfam Walsh.î'
Walsh: MIlelly Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the
House, in addition to what the last speaker said,
the damage that was done and as he correctly pointed
out, it was done by a Member on that sïde of the
aisle. But since then we have had a Legislative
Day when that could have been undone if only through
people on the other side of the aisle had come to
talk to us about undoing We were very anxious
to resurrect these Bills, as it were, and get them
back on the Calendar. But it was our feeling that
the overture should come from that side of the atsle
from whence the difficulty came. Now ff these Bills
had been so fmportane to the vorkïngmen, if they
bad been other tban what they know darn well they
are, highly inflationary. And they have no thought
whatever of these Bills passing botb Houses and

being signed by the Governor because that would .
be unspeakably inflationarys then they would have
come over to us and said let's do 'somethinq because
wefve got these very important Bills, but there
' ' was not one word in the man# hours we were'here
yesterday about getting these Bills back on the
Calendar. And it looks to me like they were per- '
fectly willing to 1et them go. I think webre all
being kind of suckered a little bit here by the
advocate of organized labor so that they can get us
on the Roll Call and they can run around and say
that we are anti-labor, actually we're responsible.
But theyîll say weAre anti-labor. These Bills don't
mean a11 that much to the people who advocating
thcm, believe me, these Bills in themselves and
they are making us suffer. They bope to make us -
buffer in the election. But the ones the#fre really
hurtfng are the People that they say theyfre try-' . '
ing to help and tbat's the workfng peoplé because
they don't...false hope in them. And I urge you
to vote no.''
speaker Blair: ''Mr. Shea.''
Shea: ''uell, Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House,
1 don't think weAre trying to build any false hope.
I think many people are trying to do something for
the working people. Xou talk about in the tenth
hour with not much tfme to go. I remember a Bill
that came out of the Rules Committee, I think it
was called Senate Bill 10l0y and inside of one Legis-
lative Day we raised the interest rate from eight
to nine-and-a-half percent. We voted ourselves
some pretty raises and we voted the judges some
pretty good raises. There's some $100 raises fer
every state employee, that I think Mr. Jones handled.

a 107 votes. And then vote a Bill up or down on
fts merits. Now, Mr. Walshy talks about we should .
have come to him because the mistake was made on
tbis side of the aisle. I remelber Mr. Walsh last
nlght before we closed down this operatfon and I
asked you. shouldn't we do something about this
tonight? And I tbink your statement to me was
'we can do ït tomorrow'. Welly that's righty Clyde.
tomorrow's here. And perhaps, perhaps we're not
as smart and as bright and as technically correct
but I ask and I implore some of my colleagues on
that side of the aisle if'they wouldn't please
join with us, put a 107 votes on tbat boardy and
give us an opportunity to vote these up or down '
- or their merits. Thank you very mqch.''

have somebody in your family and tbey get hard at

which is going to be 30, 40 dollars more a month:
where are they going to get that money? They donlt'
jget it from the worker s compensation or unemploy-
ment when they're laid off. I urge an aye vote

Speaker Blair: ''Mrs. Catania.'l
catania: ''Thank you, Mr. Speakers Members of the House,
a while back Representative Hanahan. said that -
- these people don't really have a direct effect on
the economy, I believe. I would like to point out
that the people on workmen's compensation and unem-
ployment compensation perhaps have a more direct
affect on the economy than just about anybody else
in the country. The philosophy behind workmenfs
compensation and unemployment compensation is to
provide that a little bit of hope that keeps people
going, until tbey can get back on tbe job one way
or the other. I'd also lfke to pofnt eut that .
through the legislation of this General Assembly
men now get equal benefits with women on workmen's
compensation. I expected at least one more green
lfght to go on vhen I safd that: for heaven's sakes.
. These are two extremely important Bills. These
are the Bills that really bold out hope to the
People of the State of Illinois. And I think we
need some more green lights up there.''

understandfng, it's my understaading that a Senate
Member, under the Rules of the House, can request
the removal of a House Sponsor. I did not know.

to remove a House Sponsor. And if the Speaker
