AI Bills Sponsored
SB 315
Illinois just enacted SB 315, the Artificial Intelligence Safety Measures Act, sponsored by Senators Mary Edly-Allen and Sue Rezin. It requires the largest AI developers (companies with over $500M in revenue training massive 'frontier' models above 10^26 compute operations) to publish safety frameworks, report critical incidents within 72 hours, and undergo annual third-party audits. Penalties reach $1M per first violation and $3M for repeat violations, enforced solely by the Illinois Attorney General.

HB 3494
Illinois HB 3494, introduced by Rep. Mary Beth Canty and a large group of Democratic co-sponsors, creates a new Health Data Privacy Act regulating how companies collect, use, and share consumer health data. While the bill text is sparse in the summary provided, similar state laws (like Washington's My Health My Data Act) typically restrict AI-driven health data processing, require explicit consumer consent, and ban the sale of health information without authorization.

HB 4743
Illinois HB 4743, introduced by Rep. Yolonda Morris and a group of House Democrats, regulates labor practices at transportation network companies (think Uber and Lyft). While the bill focuses on driver pay and worker protections, it likely touches on algorithmic management systems that set fares, assign rides, and deactivate drivers, which would bring AI-driven gig platforms under new scrutiny in Illinois.
Last action: May 28, 2026
SB 2909
Illinois SB 2909, led by Senator Christopher Belt, would prohibit school districts from using artificial intelligence as the sole basis for evaluating teacher performance. AI can still assist in evaluations, but a qualified human evaluator must make the final call. The bill has passed both chambers and is headed to the governor.
Last action: May 27, 2026
SB 3114
Illinois SB 3114, introduced by Sen. Dave Koehler with broad bipartisan support, would require health insurers to disclose when they use AI or algorithms to 'downcode' medical claims (paying providers less than what was billed by reassigning codes). Insurers would have to explain the downcoding decision, identify whether AI was involved, and give providers a way to appeal.

ILLINOIS SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND
Last action: May 21, 2026
HB 4980
Illinois Rep. Abdelnasser Rashid and 20 co-sponsors introduced the Human Control of AI Act, which would require meaningful human oversight of AI systems used in consequential decisions. The bill is currently parked in the Rules Committee, meaning it has not advanced but signals where Illinois Democrats want to take AI regulation.
Last action: Apr 17, 2026
HB 5151
Illinois HB 5151 regulates how police and other entities use automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) systems, which are cameras that scan and log license plates. The bill would restrict how long ALPR data can be stored, who can access it, and what it can be used for. It's currently stuck in the Rules Committee, meaning it's not moving forward right now.
Last action: Apr 17, 2026
HB 3567
Illinois HB 3567, introduced by Rep. Murri Briel and a large coalition of House Democrats, would require that consequential decisions made with AI receive 'meaningful human review' rather than being fully automated. The bill targets situations where algorithms make or heavily influence decisions about people (think hiring, lending, housing, benefits) and mandates a real human stay in the loop.
