Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois State Police Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois and the Illinois Police Training Act. Defines "gender-affirming care" and "reproductive health care". Provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of law, records maintained by the Illinois State Police or a law enforcement agency that contain any reference to reproductive health care or gender-affirming care shall be redacted to exclude the references to reproductive health care and gender-affirming care upon inspection and copying when inspection and copying is otherwise allowed by law. Amends the Freedom of Information Act to make a conforming change. Amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 and the Code of Civil Procedure. Provides that, if a document filed during a criminal or civil proceeding that contains any reference to reproductive health care or gender-affirming care, the document, including court records, shall be filed under seal and remain under seal unless the court orders otherwise, or, if not filed under seal, a document that references reproductive health care or gender-affirming care must be redacted before being filed. Requires, upon final disposition of a case involving documents described under the provisions, the entire court file to be immediately sealed, and, after immediate sealing, the case file only may be made available to the public by court order unsealing the records as otherwise provided by law and only with any reference to reproductive health care or gender-affirming care redacted. Includes procedures relating to the immediate sealing of the records, including modification of immediate sealing procedures under the Criminal Identification Act. Allows parties to access the unredacted filings or files with a protective order. Effective immediately.
