Analyst read

UPDATE (June 2026): Sen. Edly-Allen’s AI Safety Measures Act advanced not through SB 3312 but through the SB 315 vehicle, which passed both chambers (Senate 52-5; House 110-0) and was sent to Gov. Pritzker on June 1, 2026. SB 3312 itself never received a floor vote and is dormant for the spring session — see SB 315 for the enacted-track version. Original analysis: the Apr 24 deadline passed without a committee vote, then rolled to May 15; Edly-Allen added four high-profile co-sponsors during the hearings window, and the framework was ultimately harmonized into SB 315 with the private right of action removed and operational deadlines extended toward 2028.

Enforcement

Civil penalties for noncompliance
