Yes, Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate.

Basically Committee Amendment No. 1 became the bill, and provided

that RTA -- RTA budget materlals would be made available to the

public for viewinq at no cost at least three weeks prior to any

public hearings. Board members would have to be present at a

majority of the hearings. This also provided outlines on the

Whistle Blower Protection Act, and we got rid of the potential

suggestion board that the original bill had had. It Was agreed to

by the CTA that helped to work out the language, and to my

Senator Rock.

SENATOR ROCK:


Senate Bill 1508 will be an amendment to the Fish and Aquatic Life

Code. It concerns itself Wtth commercial fishing in Lake

Michigan. The amendment does three things: one, it increases the

tonnage in terms of yellow perch that can be authorized to be

taken from the lake; two, it increases the number of commercial

fishing licenses from three to five; third, it increases the life

of the license from one year to a five-year period of time; and

fourth, it provides for some prequalifications that the Department

musk follow When issuing the additional two licenses. I would

move for the adoption of the Committee Amendment No. 1.

things: It eliminates the requirement that the Department of

of standards of coverage in administration of such trusts. The !

Department has had no interest in the content of this Act. The

second thing it does: It expands the annual statement requirementI

to companies authorized to do business in Illinois, rather than

those actually doing business. The thërd thing is: Authorizes

payment of out-of-state lodging and travel expenses for -- for

financial examiners to the National Association of Insuranae!

Commissioner recommended amounts. Number four is: It modernizes

the financial reporting requirement for accident and health

insurance to permit them to file reports on diskettes, and it also

removes the hundred-dollar-a-day penalty for filing late reports.

Last thing is: It removes the requirement that medicalI

malpractice insurers report on claims, payment and reserves, and '

allows the Director to request such information. I would move for

the adoption of that amendment.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

All right. The amendment, having -- having been read a first

time -- it will be moved to the Order of Constitutional Amendments

2nd Reading. Senator Demuzio, for what purpose do you arise?

SENATOR DEMUZIO:

On a point of personal privilege, Mr. President.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

State your point, please.

SENATOR DEMUZIO:

Well, while wedre on a -- little 1u11 here -- while we are on

a 1u11: For the eighteen years I have been around here in May of

this week why, things sort of just come together, I guess, and we iididn't want anybody to think that we hadn't remembered Senator !1Arthur Berman's birthday or your birthday. And we know that you Ii

are a year older, and so we wanted to take this opportunity to see I!

how lon: it would go before, you know, without this slipping by. I

!So we Want to offer our happy birehday, both to you and Senator

Berman.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

As Senator Palmer used to say, Senator Berman and I are a

little ambivalent. We want to forget that we have a birthday, but

the alternative is simply unacceptable, so we -- we'll do the best

we can. Senator Macdonald, for what purpose do you arise, madam?

SENATOR MACDONALD:

Wellz first of all, to wish you happy birthday, Mr. President.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Thank you.

SENATOR MACDONALD:

But secondly, on a point of personal privilege.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

State your pointy please.

SENATOR MACDONALD:

I would like to introduce a constituent of mine who is down!for the day, Mr. Stan Broten of Arlington Heights, who's sitting j!

behind me. Would you welcome him, please? !I

PRESIDENT ROCK: ;;

Will you please rise and be recognized. Welcome to !iSpringfield. Al1 rlght. Ladies and Gentlemen, the last order -- !

if I can have your attention, we have had a request to go ta the

top of page 30 on the Order of Conference Committee Reports. This II

will be in the order of final action - addressing the Conference

Committee Report on Senate Bill 1231, and then we will have

effectively eoncluded our business for today. We will reconvene

here at nine oîclock tomorrow morning. 0r actually, Senator

Philip, I think, is going to call for a caucus, so wefll make it

9:30 tomorrow morning. And also let me remind a11 of you -- 1et

me remind all of you, please, that we have all been cordially

invited by George Ryan, the Secretary of State, to a reception in

honor of Senator Janet Joyce - George's hometown Senator - this

afternoon at approximately 3:30, in George's office - Room 213 of

the Capitol Building. And George's letter goes on to say, ''I hope

you will take this opportunity to welcome Senator Joyce to the

General Assembly. I know that she will make an outstanding

contribution during her tenure, and will ably represent the

interests of the Kankakee area.'' I have alerted the Secretary and

his office that we would be a few minutes late, but only a few.

So if we could go down there immediately after Session to

accommodate Secretary of State Ryany I know he and Senator Joyce

would appreciate it. Senator Philip, for what purpose do you

arise, sir?

SENATOR PHILIP:


I would ask for a Republican Caucus in my office at 8:30 a.m. Ifm

going to buy breakfast.

86




PRESIDENT ROCK:

All right. Republican Caucus at 8:30 in the morning. Senator

Hall, for what purpose do you arise?

SENATOR HALL:

For a point of personal privilege, Mr. President.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

State your point, please.

SENATOR HALL:

Weire honored today to have a group from my district - Dupo,

Illinois. They're here in the balccny. And you saw all those

displays down on the lst Floor. And these are some champions.

I'd like to introduce them. The gallery right behind me.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Our guests please stand and be recognized. Welcome to

Springfield. Senator Topinka, for what purpose do you arise?

SENATOR TOPINKA:

Yes. Mr. President and Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate,

would like to have recognized and welcomed to Springfield some

people who are near and dear to me# both who work for me, as well

as who are constituents, and that include the Fogartys and

Derricos of Elmhurst and the Stephenses of La Grange Highlands.

And they're in your gallery right behind you. And if we could

welcome them a11 to Springfleld.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Will our guests please stand and be recognized. Welcome to

Springfield. A11 right. With leave of the Body, Wedll move to

page 30 on the Calendar, Ladies and Gentlemen. Top of page 30, on

the Order of Conference Committee Reports, there's a Conference

Committee Report With respect to Senate Bill 1231. Mr. Secretary.


2nd Conference Committee Report on Senate Bill 1231.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

87




Senator Marovitz.

SENATOR MAROVITZ:

Thank you very much, Mr. President and Members of the Senate.

The Conference Committee Report on Senate Bill 1231 is an

extremely important one and very timely. Failure to pass this

Conference Committee Report w1ll result in the relocation of the

American Bar Association headquarters from Chicago, where it's

located now, to the State of Ohio, Which already affords

protections from liability for members of corporations, which is

embodied in this legislatlon. According to counsel for the

Secretary of State - for George Ryan - the language in this bill

provides that members of a not-for-profit corporation shall not be

personally liable for any debt or obligation of the corporation.

That is a codification of existlng State 1aw now, but the ABA and

their counsel said that unless we put it in the Statutes, the ABA

was going to move their corporate headquarters out of the City of

Chicago. Based upon corporate interpretations of similar language

in other states, counsel contends that court would still be ableI

to use their equitable powers to find liability, so they needed

statutory language. And that is embodied in this legislation, so

that directors and officers would not be held personally liable

for the debts of these not-for-profit corporations. Another

portion of the legislation deals with Airport Authorities. A

municipal Airport Authority in Springfield, Rockford and Dupage

County would be able to use facilities that they own to expand

recreational facilitles on that airport land. This clarifies

existing language and would allow for the bonding for these

purposes. There is a third portion of *he bill which amends the

Vehkcle Code and allows the -- the delivery of title instruments

in a reasonable period of time not to exceed twenty days, rather

than the existing time, which is twenty-four hours. It provides

that a person must deliver instruments of ownership relating to aI

88




vehicle to a proper person within that -- reasonable time, not to

exceed twenty days. And that's as been requested by the Secretary

of Statels Office. I would be happy to answer any questions on

any of the issues embodied in this Conference Committee Report.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

All right. The Gentleman has moved the adoption of the

Conference Committee Report on Senate Bill 1231. Discussion?

Senator Schaffer.

SENATOR SCHAFFER:

Mr. President, a question for the sponsor. I'm -- I1m sure I

misunderstood what he said.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Sponsor indicates he will yield, Senator Schaffer.

SENATOR SCHAFFER:

You didn't say that the Bar Association was going to leave

Illinois unless we covered them from liabilityz did you?

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Senator Marovitz.

SENATOR MAROVITZ:

I did, in fact, say that the American Bar Association

corporate headquarters were going to move their corporate

headquarters, unless we clarified statutorily the question of

liability of corporate officers and directors.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Senator Schaffer.

SENATOR SCHAPFER:

Do you think they'd settle for caps?

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Senator Marovitz.

SENATOR MAROVITZ:

I don't know. Wefll have to consult with the Medical Society.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

89




A1l right. Further discussion? Senator DeAngelis.

SENATOR DeANGELISI

Question of the sponsor.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Sponsor indicates he'll yield, Senator DeAngelis.

SENATOR DeANGELIS:

How many lawyers would leave with the ABA if they left the

State?

PRESIDENT ROCK:

A1l right. Further discussion? Further discussion? Senator

Marovitz, you wish to close?

SENATOR MAROVITZ:

No. I think that the issues are clear. There are three main

issues, and I would solicit an Aye vote.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Question is, shall the Senate adopt the Conference Committee

Report on Senate Bill 1231. Those in favor will vote Aye.

Opposed, vote Nay. And the voting is open. Have al1 voted Who

wish? Have all voted Who wish? Have a1l voted who Wish? Have

a11 voted who wish? Have a11 voted Who Wish? Take the record.

On that question, there are 42 Ayes, 5 Nays, 3 voting Present.

The Senate does adopt the Conference Committee Report on Senate

Bill 1231, and the bill, having received the required

constitutional majority, is declared passed. Ladies and

Gentlemen, We made an egregious error. Senator Davidson: do you

want to make your announcement with respect to tomorrow mornlng?

Senator Davidson.

SENATOR DAVIDSON:

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate, those of you who purchased

tickets for the Governor's Prayer Breakfast, it's tomorrow

morning, 7:30 a.m. at the Holiday Inn East. Please don't ask.

Those who didn'k buy them are too late. Wedve been -- in fact,

welre fifty oversold. And Senator Berman and Senator Smieh, your

transportation will be there to pick you up at 7:00 a.m. at the

Hilton. Please be ready.i

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Senator Phillp.

SENATOR PHILIP:

I -- I certainly am going to yield to the Prayer Breakfast,

but I would have a Republican Caucus at nine o'clock in my office.

And we will have the -- the second breakfast.

. PRESIDENT ROCK:

A11 right. The -- we'll just back the whole thing up an hour,

given the Prayer Breakfast. So Republican Caucus at nine; Session

will commence roughly at ten; and again, we'll probably be out of

here right about noon. If there's no further business, or further

announcements -- Senator Geo-Karis.

SENATOR GEO-KARIS:

Mr. President and Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate, at this

caucus tomorrow at 9:00 a.m., Senator Philip ks soing to provide

the coffee and rolls.

PRESIDENT ROCK:

Yeah. A1l right. Ladies and Gentlemen, don't forget now,

Secretary of State Ryan has invited us down to 2l3 for a brief

reception -- or a reception - it's up to him how bràef it is. The

Democratic Members will please: pursuant to the notice you

received about the little meeting we're having, well, let's make

the meeting at 4:30 in my office. So Wedll afford everybody an

opportunity to get down and formally say hello to George and

Welcome Senator Joyce. And We'll meet at 4:30 in my office. And

if there is no further business to eome before the Senate, Senator

Vadalabene moves that the Senate stand adjourned untit Thursday,

May 7 - Thursday morning at the hour of ten o'clock. Ten o'clock

tomorrow morning, Ladies and Gentlemen.
