Bill Summary · SR 21

Legislative bill overview

Senate Resolution 21 is a memorial resolution honoring Danny C. Alexander. The resolution was adopted by the Illinois Senate on January 29, 2025, after being filed and referred to the Resolutions Consent Calendar with all senators listed as co-sponsors.

Why is this important

Memorial resolutions serve as official legislative acknowledgment of individuals who have made significant contributions to their communities or the state. While memorials are ceremonial in nature, they create an official public record of recognition and allow families and communities to be formally honored through legislative action.

Potential points of contention

  • Limited public information: The resolution text itself is not provided, making it impossible to assess what specific accomplishments or contributions Danny C. Alexander made that warrant state-level recognition.
  • Unanimous co-sponsorship: The automatic co-sponsorship by all senators suggests this may be a routine procedural memorial, raising questions about whether the consent calendar process adequately distinguishes between individuals of varying significance.
  • No substantive policy impact: As a memorial, this resolution carries no legal force or budgetary implications, making its actual legislative weight unclear to the public record.
