As of September 23, 2026, ILGA lists the Senate’s May 22 re-referral to Assignments under Rule 3-9(a) as SB 3180’s last action. Its action history shows deadline extensions but no committee approval or floor vote. The data-retention limits and private right of action described in the introduced bill remain proposals, not current requirements.
