Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Gambling Act. Creates the Problem Gaming Task Force to provide recommendations to the General Assembly on how the State should continue to meet its responsibility to assist those who suffer from a gambling problem or disorder. Includes provisions relating to task force membership, compensation and meetings, duties, and reports. Provides that the Illinois Gaming Board shall provide administrative and other support to the task force. Requires the task force to submit a report of its recommendations to the Governor and the General Assembly. Repeals the provisions on January 1, 2027.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes. Changes the name of the Task Force to the Problem Gambling Task Force (from the Problem Gaming Task Force). Provides that the President of the Senate shall appoint a member of the Senate to serve as cochair of the Task Force, that the Speaker of the House of Representatives shall appoint a member of the House of Representatives to serve as cochair of the Task Force, and that the Minority Leader of the Senate and the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives shall each appoint one member of the Task Force from the Senate and House, respectively (rather than the President of the Senate appointing one member from each of the 2 largest caucuses of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives appointing one member from each of the 2 largest caucuses of the House of Representatives). Provides that the Department of Human Services (rather than the Illinois Gaming Board) shall provide administrative and other support to the Task Force. Makes some stylistic and grammatical changes.
