(Secretary reads title of bill) 2 STATE OF ILLINOIS 92ND GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 66th Legislative Day February 6, 2002 3rd Reading of the bill. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) Senator Philip. SENATOR PHILIP: Thank you, Madam President, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate. Senate Bill 1553 declares February 6 as Ronald Reagan Day in Illinois to honor the President of the United States. It's only a day of observance, not a legal school holiday or not a holiday for State employees. In the year 2002, twenty-four governors, seventeen states' legislative bodies have passed legislation honoring Ronald Reagan's birthday. Today President Bush signed Denny Hastert's legislation that made Ronald Reagan's boyhood home, in Dixon, Illinois, a National Historic Site. If you look at longevity, he will be the longest-living President in the history of our country. He is ninety-one years old today. Back in colonial days, Jefferson lived to eighty-three, and, of course, back in colonial days, that was old. And Hoover was the second-oldest President that lasted the longest, ninety years. But Ronald Reagan has beat 'em all. He was born February 6th, 1911, in Tampico, Illinois. He's lived in Chicago, Galesburg, Monmouth, settling his family in Dixon. He graduated from Dixon High School. He was the student body president there. Played basketball, football and track. He graduated from Eureka College and served in the Army Reserve. We're very proud of his record. He's been a great communicator, a great President. So, I'll be happy to answer any questions. Would like to see a lot of green votes up there. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) Is there any discussion? Senator Sieben. SENATOR SIEBEN: Thank you very much, Madam President. I rise in strong support of this legislation as a cosponsor. Been my privilege, 3 STATE OF ILLINOIS 92ND GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 66th Legislative Day February 6, 2002 for the last ten years, to represent Tampico, Illinois, in Whiteside County, to also represent Dixon, Illinois, in Lee County, to -- President Reagan's hometown, his birth site in Tampico and his childhood home in Dixon, Illinois. I would like to invite all Members of the General Assembly, when you're in northwest Illinois, to stop by Tampico and see his birthplace and stop in Dixon and see his childhood home. Great places, a great remembrance of a great President who today turns ninety-one years old. If you'd like to join us Friday night in Dixon, we will be celebrating Reagan Day at a great dinner at the Brandywine Restaurant. There'll be four, five hundred people there, be a great event to recognize and honor President Reagan's ninety-first birthday. So, I would ask that all Members vote Aye on this great legislation. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) You can take your conferences off the Floor. Will the Members please be in their seats? Senator Petka. SENATOR PETKA: Thank you, Madam President and Members of the Senate. I recently received a present from my family, a book from Peggy -- that was written by Peggy Noonan, called When________________________Character was King. It's the story of Ronald Reagan. As a young man, a young boy growing up in the City of Chicago and a member of the Catholic Church, we would pray, after every Sunday service, for the conversion of Russia. And as a young man, I wondered if we'd ever see that happen in our lifetime. It was because of the determination and the vision of President Reagan, in confronting what he referred to as the evil empire, that a very, very happy day in the history of the planet occurred when the -- the wall came down, the wall that Reagan asked to come down. And the Soviet Union literally crumbled from within, in large measure because the President of the United States and Pope John Paul II 4 STATE OF ILLINOIS 92ND GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 66th Legislative Day February 6, 2002 had a meeting in which they discussed that communism was not inevitable, as the -- the Marxist-Leninists believed, but that freedom, and freedom as we know it in this country, was truly the will and the wish of mankind. Ronald Reagan typifies what is great in this country. From -- born of humble origin and rising, because of his own belief in the system, his own belief in American ideals and belief in his fellow man that he became President of the United States. And as a native of the State of Illinois, I believe that it is fitting, it is proper -- and proper that we recognize this great man's achievements in the quest for freedom on this planet. I -- I stand in support of this bill and I would ask for all to support it. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) Is there further discussion? Is there further discussion? Senator Philip, to close. SENATOR PHILIP: Thank you, Madam Chairman. Ronald Reagan, in 1984, in Decatur, Illinois, at a speech said this: "I'm proud of my Illinois roots. This is where I learned about the value of faith and family and work." He's a great American, great President, and we ought to have a lot of green votes up there. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) The question is, shall Senate Bill 1553 pass. Those in favor will vote Aye. Opposed, Nay. And the voting's open. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Take the record. On that question, there are 57 Ayes, no Nays, none voting Present. Senate Bill 1553, having received the required constitutional majority, is declared passed. Senator Bomke, for what purpose do you rise? SENATOR BOMKE: Thank you, Madam President. A point of personal privilege. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) 5 STATE OF ILLINOIS 92ND GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 66th Legislative Day February 6, 2002 Please state your point. SENATOR BOMKE: We have with us today, behind the Democrat side of the aisle, from Calvary Academy, the government class, grades 9 through 12. The teacher is Kevin Beeson. Would you please help me in welcoming them here today? PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) Will you rise and be recognized by the Illinois Senate? Welcome. Senator Syverson, for what purpose do you rise? SENATOR SYVERSON: Thank you, Madam President. Also a point of personal privilege. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) State your point. SENATOR SYVERSON: We have with us, also on the same side, students from the Abraham Lincoln Junior High School in -- in Rockford. These are students that spent a significant amount of time this year with the Salvation Army Food Drive and broke all the school records by raising three times as much food as they've done before. And they're here today to be honored for the work they've done in Salvation Army. And I'd like to have the students of Lincoln Junior High and the staff please rise and be welcomed. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DONAHUE) Will you rise and be recognized by the Illinois Senate? Welcome.

  • Template for Writ (00169424).DOC
    Across the Line Published in the Washoe County Bar Association’s The Writ By: Jim Porter of Porter Simon NEW CALIFORNIA LAWS FOR 2011 The California Legislators are a prolific law making machine. This year they approved close to 1,000 bills, but only 725 were signed by (former) Governor Arnie. Here is a sampling in no particular order. Unless otherwise noted, these bills took effect January 1, 2011. Sports Betting Pools Existing law makes it a misdemeanor to form a betting pool or place a bet on the outcome of any contest, like a sporting event. AB 58 makes it a mere infraction to participate in a betting pool, as long as there is no more than $2500 at stake. Hand Gun Ammunition—Thumbprints This controversial law will be challenged in the courts and will be featured in a future column. Commencing February 1, 2011, under AB 962, sellers of hand gun (pistol) ammunition must obtain a thumbprint and all sorts of personal information from anyone purchasing ammo—with very few exceptions. I did not see an exemption for .22 cartridges. Sales of pistol ammunition may only be done in a face-to-face transaction with proof of identification. (Key provisions of the law were found unconstitutionally vague by a Fresno County Superior Court.) Poaching Fines The illegal poaching of fish and wildlife is rampant in California, and yet judges are notoriously lenient when imposing fines. AB 708 will establish mandatory minimum fines with resultant increased revenue to local prosecutors to go after egregious poaching. It’s about time.

  • Reagan Roundtable
    Air date: June 11, 2004 Reagan roundtable KAREN GIBBS: While the country was mourning a beloved ex-president, there were lots of undercurrents moving through the markets. Gas prices fell, giving temporary relief at the pump, but rising import prices signal higher energy prices down the road. The group of eight industrialized countries met off the coast of Georgia, but they might as well have been playing golf for all the attention the meeting received. Fed chairman Alan Greenspan warned of higher interest rates to combat inflation, and a telecom ruling favoring regional bell companies could affect millions of consumers. And a new study showed that being rich doesn't guarantee you'll get lucky. But all of that took a back seat to the news of the death of the 40th president of the United States. No other president has an economic theory named after him. He left an indelible imprint on government an Wall Street. John Rutledge was an early architect of the Reagan economic plan. He now runs Rutledge Capital and joins us from New York City. Steven Leuthold, chairman of Leuthold Weeden Capital Management, credits Reagan for winning the Cold War but fears the Reagan legacy of higher deficits. Steve joins us from Portland, Maine. Well, John, let me ask you, the Reaganomics theories of increased defense, reduced taxes, lower government spending, and deregulation are still with us today. How do we grade Reaganomics? JOHN RUTLEDGE: Well, you know, we should have called him the Clipper instead of the Gipper, because he wanted lower taxes, lower spending, lower regulations, and lower inflation.
