State Senators Mike Halpin and Neil Anderson, along with Representative Dan Swanson, are honoring the life of Deputy Sheriff Nick Weist – who died in the line of duty – by passing a measure to memorialize parts of a Galesburg highway. "Honoring the life of Deputy Nick Weist is a way to show our gratitude and respect for his sacrifice," said Senator Halpin (D-Rock Island). "This memorial highway will serve as a constant reminder that speaks to his selflessness, and demonstrates we will not forget his sacrifice in serving and protecting the community."

The bill's sponsor says the bill will prevent the sale, manufacture, possession, and purchase of assault-style weapons, assault weapon attachments, and .50 caliber cartridges in the state. Rep. Dan Swanson (R-Alpha) voted against the measure, saying this bill would damage Illinois businesses and punish law-abiding gun owners. "It's those of us who have guns or those of us who have our FOIDs and CCLs who will be punished," Swanson said on the House Floor on Tuesday. "And, not the criminal for using that as a tool for committing a crime." The bill would also expedite the implementation of universal background checks but would not change the age range of the Firearms Owners Identification cards. Upon passage from the house, Gov. JB Pritzker signed the bill into law. ....
