Material revisions to this selected reference appear here, newest first, with links to affected records. Each entry describes the change made on its stated date.
-
Corrected a material bill-status error after checking the 32 selected tracker records against ILGA. SB 316 and SB 317 passed the Senate on May 21, 2026, but did not pass the House or reach the Governor; both were re-referred to House Rules on May 31. Thirteen other Senate bills previously labeled 'In committee' were re-referred to Senate Assignments on May 22. The tracker now distinguishes this focused September 23 status check from the broader enacted-law analysis dated July 31. Earlier changelog entries below retain and identify the mistaken five-bill claim for correction transparency.
-
Recorded the signings of SB 315 (AI Safety Measures Act) on July 6, 2026 as PA 104-0538 and SB 3114 (Transparency in Downcoding Act) on July 10, 2026 as PA 104-0568. Both moved to the enacted statutes (effective January 1, 2027 and January 1, 2028, respectively), and a Frontier AI sector was added. This update incorrectly described them as two of five governor-sent AI bills and incorrectly said SB 316 and SB 317 awaited gubernatorial action; corrected September 23.
-
Rebuilt the reference on Astro with a single typed data source. Every headline count is now computed from the data rather than typed by hand, every law and bill carries a dated primary source, and the design was brought into full alignment with techne.ai. This resolves the earlier cross-page contradictions (a dashboard that read “9 enacted” against an enacted page that read “5,” and a “3 sectors” summary that listed four).
-
Recorded SB 318 (Ticket Bot Prevention Act), signed June 25, 2026 as PA 104-0474 and effective January 1, 2027. Confirmed HB 3851's Public Act number as PA 104-0338 and added a Consumer Protection sector. This update incorrectly called SB 318 the first of five governor-sent AI bills; corrected September 23.
-
The June review incorrectly reported that SB 315, SB 316, SB 317, SB 318, and SB 3114 had all passed both chambers and been sent to the Governor. The September 23 correction established that SB 316 and SB 317 passed only the Senate and were re-referred to House Rules on May 31. The other three later became Public Acts.
-
Recorded the Illinois Department of Human Rights’ withdrawal and postponement of its proposed rules implementing the AI Employment Discrimination Act (PA 103-0804). The statute remains in effect while rulemaking is paused.
-
SB 315 passed the House 110–0, positioning Illinois to become the first U.S. state to mandate independent third-party audits of frontier-AI safety practices. It was sent to the Governor on June 26, 2026 and signed on July 6.
-
The AI Employment Discrimination Act (PA 103-0804) and the Public Education AI Guidelines (PA 104-0399) took effect.
