Legislative bill overview

HB 3024 is an Illinois bill that appropriates supplemental funds for disaster relief efforts. The bill was introduced by Rep. Abdelnasser Rashid in February 2025 and has been referred to the Appropriations-Public Safety and Infrastructure Committee for review. As of March 2025, it remains in the Rules Committee process.

Why is this important

Supplemental disaster relief funding addresses immediate recovery needs following declared disasters, helping communities rebuild infrastructure, assist displaced residents, and restore essential services. The bill's passage could provide critical resources for Illinois communities affected by recent or ongoing disasters, though the specific dollar amount and allocation details are not disclosed in the available legislative record.

Potential points of contention

  • Funding source unclear: The bill's mechanism for funding (new appropriation, reallocation, or borrowed funds) is not specified in available records, raising questions about fiscal impact
  • Allocation details absent: Without knowing which disasters or regions are targeted, stakeholders cannot assess whether funding addresses their specific needs
  • Emergency vs. standard process: Supplemental disaster bills sometimes bypass normal budget procedures, which some view as necessary urgency while others see as circumventing fiscal oversight
