Partisan push on Illinois product liability and labor bills
Illinois House action split along party lines over HB 1317 to tighten product liability standards, with GOP support from several freshmen and incumbents and one south suburban vote against. HB 1873, backing collective bargaining for about 61,000 state workers, passed 103-62, while HB 1296 clarifying tax classifications cleared 158-9. HB 1363 to ban Sunday car sales failed 87- yes votes short of needed 89. Absent: Yourell and Leinenweber. Present: Van Duyne and Dunn.
