Rep Bos Concerned by Consequences of HB3653 for Victims

State Representative Chris Bos (R-Lake Zurich). IL House Staff   Updated 1/29/2021 10:50 AM LAKE ZURICH State Representative Chris Bos (R-Lake Zurich) is calling on Governor Pritzker to veto House Bill 3653, citing contradictory provisions within the legislation and concerns about its effects on assault victims, in addition to public safety concerns expressed by law enforcement. While I fundamentally agree that we need to reform our criminal justice system and address systemic racism within it, I am deeply concerned that House Bill 3653 will not achieve that goal and will make our communities less safe, said Bos. It is not simply the middle of the night process to rush through a 764-page bill, or the exclusion of law enforcement, state s attorney s, and victims rights advocates from negotiations that is the problem, by mashing two bills together it led to contradictory language within the legislation on top of many other concerns.
