HB 5908

Abstract

Amends the Illinois Act on the Aging. In provisions setting forth the powers and duties of the Illinois Commission on LGBTQ Aging, requires the Commission to prepare and submit an annual report (rather than a First Report) to the Governor, the Illinois General Assembly, the Director, and the Illinois Council on Aging that details the progress made toward its stated objectives. Provides that the annual report shall be made public on the Department on Aging's website. Requires the Commission to submit, no later than March 30, 2028, a Final Report (rather than a Second Report by March 30, 2025) in the same manner as the annual report detailing the work the Commission has done since its inception and providing findings and recommendations, including any recommended legislation. Permits the Department and the Commission to collaborate with any institution of higher education in Illinois to compile any required reports. Extends the repealer date for the amendatory provision to May 16, 2028 (rather than May 16, 2025).
