Illinois lawmaker pushes bill to repeal fireworks ban
House Bill 5928 filed by Rep. Barbara Wheeler would repeal Illinois Pyrotechnic Use Act of 1942, replacing the ban with a state regulated framework for selling and using consumer fireworks. It sets age 18 purchase, 200 foot safety rule, registration fees up to 500 dollars, and local ordinance compliance, aiming to attract tax revenue seen in neighboring states.
