Legislative bill overview

HR 310 is a memorial resolution honoring Jo Ellen K. Dooley, an individual being commemorated by the Illinois House of Representatives. Memorial resolutions are legislative acknowledgments that recognize individuals for their contributions, service, or significance to their communities or the state.

Why is this important

Memorial resolutions serve an important civic function by formally recognizing individuals' legacies and contributions through the legislative process. They become part of the official state record and provide families and communities with formal state acknowledgment of the honored person's life and impact.

Potential points of contention

  • Memorial resolutions are non-controversial by design and typically pass unanimously, as they focus on honoring rather than policy debate
  • No substantive policy implications or budgetary impact
  • These resolutions occupy legislative calendar time, though typically in consent/agreed resolution calendars that minimize procedural delay
