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.

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.

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.
