Bill Summary · SR 90

Legislative bill overview

SR 90 is a memorial resolution honoring Cheryl L. Shultz, introduced in the Illinois State Senate. The resolution was adopted on February 5, 2025, after being filed and referred to the Resolutions Consent Calendar with support from all senators as co-sponsors.

Why is this important

Memorial resolutions serve a formal legislative function by creating an official public record honoring individuals' contributions or commemorating significant figures. This particular resolution demonstrates legislative recognition of Cheryl L. Shultz's significance to Illinois, though the specific reasons for the memorial are not detailed in the bill summary provided.

Potential points of contention

  • Limited public information: The resolution summary does not specify Cheryl L. Shultz's background, accomplishments, or why she was selected for this honor, making it difficult for constituents to understand the rationale
  • Consent calendar use: The rapid passage through the Resolutions Consent Calendar (typically used for non-controversial items) bypasses typical deliberative review, which some view as perfunctory
  • Universal co-sponsorship: All senators immediately co-sponsoring raises questions about whether this reflects genuine consensus or standard protocol for memorial resolutions
