Summary of SR 590 (104th Illinois General Assembly)

Purpose and intent

  • SR 590 is a memorial resolution sponsored in the Illinois Senate, recognizing and honoring an individual named Jeffrey W. Fred. As a memorial, its primary function is to express the sentiments and commendations of the Illinois Senate, rather than to enact or change law.

Key provisions and changes

  • This type of resolution typically:
    • Declares that the Senate wishes to honor the life, contributions, or impact of Jeffrey W. Fred.
    • May outline notable achievements, service, affiliations, or community impact.
    • Conveys the body’s appreciation, respect, or remembrance.
  • The bill does not create enforceable legal obligations, appropriations, or regulatory changes. It serves a ceremonial and commemorative purpose.

Who or what would be affected

  • The primary audience and effect are:
    • Jeffrey W. Fred (honored individual) and his family, friends, and community.
    • The Illinois Senate, in its official records and proceedings.
  • There are no direct fiscal impacts, policy reforms, or administrative changes associated with memorial resolutions.

Procedural and timeline aspects

  • As a Senate memorial resolution:
    • It is typically introduced by a senator or co-sponsor (in this case, co-sponsor Steve McClure).
    • It advances through the standard Senate process for non-binding memorials, often requiring approval by the Senate and presentation in the official Journal.
    • There is no requirement for passage by the House or signature by the governor to have ceremonial effect, though concurrent or companion resolutions can exist in the House.
  • Timelines for adoption vary by legislative session schedule and floor action; memorial resolutions usually proceed without the same procedural hurdles as substantive bills.
