Illinois House Minority Leader Tony McCombie filed HB4383 in the Illinois House to ensure that legislative proceedings are available to the public, including audio and video recordings of all committee hearings in the General Assembly. Under her bill, those resources would be available to the public for 30 days.
A recent news report from WIFR, discussed Leader McCombie’s legislation, which can be seen in the above video.
In filing the bill, McCombie noted that other states already make this content available. “This isn’t something Illinois should be lagging behind on,” said Leader McCombie. “With Democratic leaders already committing their support, I expect this bill to be a bipartisan unanimous agreement.”
