Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Governmental Ethics Act. Removes the prohibition on a candidate for elective office who is required to file a statement of economic interests in relation to his or her candidacy from using the Internet to file his or her statement of economic interests.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts a Section from the engrossed bill concerning Internet-based systems of filing, and makes changes. Removes a provision prohibiting all candidates for elective office who are required to file a statement of economic interests in relation to his or her candidacy under the Illinois Governmental Ethics Act from using the Internet to file his or her statement of economic interests. Specifies that a candidate filing for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, Treasurer, Comptroller, State Senate, or State House of Representatives shall not use the Internet to file his or her statement of economic interests, but shall file his or her statement of economic interests in a written or printed form and shall receive a written or printed receipt for his or her filing. Provides that the duly appointed ethics officer for each legislative caucus shall annually certify to the Secretary of State whether his or her caucus members will file their statements of economic interests electronically or in a written or printed format for that year. Provides that if the ethics officer for a caucus certifies that the statements of economic interests shall be written or printed, then members of the General Assembly of that caucus shall not use the Internet to file his or her statement of economic interests, but shall file his or her statement of economic interests in a written or printed form and shall receive a written or printed receipt for his or her filing. Provides that if no certification is made by an ethics officer for a legislative caucus, or if a member of the General Assembly is not affiliated with a legislative caucus, then the affected member or members of the General Assembly may file their statements of economic interests using the Internet.
