Emil Jones, III) 1/10/2023HouseSession Sine Die New Act Creates the Public Higher Education Act. Provides that the intent of the Act is for the requirements of the Act to apply equally to the governing board of each public institution of higher education in this State. Defines "governing board of each public institution of higher education" and "public institution of higher education". Requires that, beginning with the 2022-2023 academic year, all documents and forms, including applications for admission, issued by a public institution of higher education offer a student the option to select "non-binary" if the document or form asks the student to identify the student's gender or biological sex. Effective immediately.House Floor Amendment No. 2 Changes the starting date for non-binary options to be included on documents and forms from the 2022-2023 academic year to the 2023-2024 academic year.Pension Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Government Forecasting & Accountability) HB 4265, as amended by HA 2, will not impact any public pension fund or retirement system in Illinois.State Debt Impact Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Government Forecasting & Accountability) HB 4265, as amended by House Amendment 2, would not change the amount of authorization for any type of State-issued bond, and, therefore, would not affect the level of State indebtedness.Balanced Budget Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Office of Management and Budget) Please be advised that the Balanced Budget Note Act does not apply to HB 4265 (H-AM1) as it is not a supplemental appropriation that increases or decreases appropriations. Under the Act, a balanced budget note must be prepared only for bills that change a general funds appropriation for the fiscal yeaiˇ in which the new bill is enacted. State Mandates Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity) This bill does not create a State mandate.Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Northeastern Illinois University) House Bill 4265 (H-AM 2) would require up to120 hours of staff time to identify, redesign update and replace electronic and paper forms that request this information, and would require replacement and reprinting of form made obsolete due to this change.The total one-time cost of compliance would be up to $10,000. Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Illinois State University) As required by House Bill 4265, HA-2, the application for admission to Illinois State University currently contains a non-binary gender choice; therefore, it is expected that the fiscal impact on the University will be nominal.Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Western Illinois University) House Bill 4265, as amended by House Amendment 2, will have nominal costs for Western Illinois University due to programming costs of electronic documents and update and replacement of certain paper forms.Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Governors State University) Governors State University estimates that compliance with this proposed amendment would cost approximately $10,000 to identify, redesign, update and replace electronic and paper forms that request this information, and would require replacement and reprinting of forms made obsolete due to this change. estimates that compliance with this proposed amendment would cost approximately $10,000 to identify, redesign, update and replace electronic and paper forms that request this information, and would require replacement and reprinting of forms made obsolete due to this change.Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Eastern Illinois University) The total cost is estimated to be between (100 hours x $50,00 per hour) $5,000.00 and (250 hours x $50.00 per hour) $12,500.00 depending on the amount of work required. Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (Southern Illinois University) Compliance with HB 4265 (H-AM-2) would require staff time to identify, redesign and update web-based and paper-based forms and reports. As these would all be internally made changes, we estimate those costs to be nominal. Fiscal Note, House Floor Amendment No. 2 (University of Illinois) Compliance with HB 4265 (H-AM 2) would cost the University of Illinois System approximately $10,000 to add gender neutral responses to student documents currently in use across the U of I System. This will cover the costs to reprogram the existing electronic student record systems. Additional expenses for paper copies, etc. are considered negligible. 12/10/2021HouseFiled with the Clerk by Rep.
