| 12 |  |  Section 5-12. The Children and Family Services Act is  | 
| 13 |  | amended by adding Section 45 as follows:
 | 
| 14 |  |  (20 ILCS 505/45 new) | 
| 15 |  |  Sec. 45. Title IV-E funds for legal services to foster  | 
| 16 |  | youth and families.  | 
| 17 |  |  (a) Findings and purpose. The General Assembly finds the  | 
| 18 |  | following: | 
| 19 |  |   (1) Child welfare court proceedings are serious and  | 
| 20 |  |  life changing. Children and youth are subject to court  | 
| 21 |  |  decisions that may forever change their family  | 
| 22 |  |  composition, as well as their connections to culture and  | 
| 23 |  |  heritage. | 
| 24 |  |   (2) The gravity of child welfare proceedings and the  | 
     | 
 |  | SB1720 Enrolled | - 9 - | LRB102 15815 RJF 21183 b |  
  | 
| 
 | 
| 1 |  |  rights and liabilities at stake necessitate the provision  | 
| 2 |  |  of quality legal representation for children and youth  | 
| 3 |  |  throughout the duration of child welfare proceedings. | 
| 4 |  |   (3) Legal representation serves to protect and advance  | 
| 5 |  |  the interests of children and youth in court and provides  | 
| 6 |  |  confidential attorney-client privilege to ensure children  | 
| 7 |  |  feel safe sharing with attorneys information that  | 
| 8 |  |  otherwise may go unvoiced. | 
| 9 |  |   (4) As the agency responsible for administering the  | 
| 10 |  |  State's approved Title IV-E State Plan, the Department of  | 
| 11 |  |  Children and Family Services is the only State agency with  | 
| 12 |  |  the authority to seek federal matching funds under Title  | 
| 13 |  |  IV-E of the Social Security Act for children who are  | 
| 14 |  |  candidates for foster care, children who are in foster  | 
| 15 |  |  care, and parents who are participating in foster care  | 
| 16 |  |  legal proceedings. | 
| 17 |  |   (5) It is the intent of the General Assembly to ensure  | 
| 18 |  |  the Department leverages and maximizes federal resources  | 
| 19 |  |  to support the provision of quality legal representation  | 
| 20 |  |  to children and families to improve outcomes in the child  | 
| 21 |  |  welfare system. |

| 11 |  | and costs incurred by organizations or law practitioners that  | 
| 12 |  | provide services as a child's lawyer or respondent's lawyer as  |

| 11 |  |  the mutually agreed timetable for transfer of functions;  | 
| 12 |  |  or | 
| 13 |  |   (3) in the event any current contract provides for  | 
| 14 |  |  termination of that contract upon the implementation of a  |

| 16 |  |  perform all necessary actions to terminate the contract on  | 
| 17 |  |  the date that coincides with the mutually agreed timetable  | 
| 18 |  |  for transfer of functions. | 
| 19 |  |  If the contracts to support the current operation of the  | 
| 20 |  | Lottery in effect on July 13, 2009 (the effective date of  | 
| 21 |  | Public Act 96-34) are not subject to termination as provided  | 
| 22 |  | for in this subsection (c), then the Department may include a  | 
| 23 |  | provision in the contract with the private manager specifying  | 
| 24 |  | a mutually agreeable methodology for incorporation. | 
| 25 |  |  (c-5) The Department shall include provisions in the  | 
| 26 |  | management agreement whereby the private manager shall, for a  | 
     |

| 5 |  | of all such bargaining unit employees assigned to perform such  | 
| 6 |  | work for the private manager, and such employees shall be  | 
| 7 |  | State employees, as defined by the Personnel Code. Department  | 
| 8 |  | employees shall operate under the same employment policies,  | 
| 9 |  | rules, regulations, and procedures, as other employees of the  | 
| 10 |  | Department. In addition, neither historical representation  |

| 12 |  | existing collective bargaining agreements, shall be disturbed  | 
| 13 |  | by the management agreement with the private manager for the  | 
| 14 |  | management of the Lottery.  | 
| 15 |  |  (d) The management agreement with the private manager  | 
| 16 |  | shall include all of the following: |

| 11 |  |  enable the Department to conduct the Lottery. | 
| 12 |  |   (4) A provision requiring the private manager to  |

| 19 |  |  evaluate and countermand that decision. | 
| 20 |  |   (5) A provision providing for compensation of the  | 
| 21 |  |  private manager that may consist of, among other things, a  | 
| 22 |  |  fee for services and a performance based bonus as  |

  | 
| 
 | 
| 1 |  |   (2) the offeror's ability to address the State's  | 
| 2 |  |  concern with the social effects of gambling on those who  |

| 7 |  | relationship with any offeror or any vendor identified to  | 
| 8 |  | assist an offeror in performing its obligations under the  |

| 16 |  | questions posed by the Department, Governor, or designee and  | 
| 17 |  | (ii) allow the public and non-selected offerors to comment on  |

| 20 |  | have 14 calendar days to recommend to the Governor whether a  | 
| 21 |  | management agreement should be entered into with a particular  | 
| 22 |  | finalist. After reviewing the Department's recommendation, the  | 
| 23 |  | Governor may accept or reject the Department's recommendation,  | 
| 24 |  | and shall select a final offeror as the private manager by  | 
| 25 |  | publication of a notice in the Illinois Procurement Bulletin  |

| 4 |  | objectives of this Section. The Governor shall also sign the  | 
| 5 |  | management agreement with the private manager. | 
| 6 |  |  (i) Any action to contest the private manager selected by  |

| 8 |  | calendar days after the publication of the notice of the  | 
| 9 |  | designation of the private manager as provided in subsection  |

| 12 |  | manager manages the Lottery in accordance with provisions of  | 
| 13 |  | this Act, a Lottery conducted by the State, and the State shall  | 
| 14 |  | not be authorized to sell or transfer the Lottery to a third  | 
| 15 |  | party. | 
| 16 |  |  (k) Any tangible personal property used exclusively in  | 
| 17 |  | connection with the lottery that is owned by the Department  | 
| 18 |  | and leased to the private manager shall be owned by the  | 
| 19 |  | Department in the name of the State and shall be considered to  | 
| 20 |  | be public property devoted to an essential public and  | 
| 21 |  | governmental function. | 
| 22 |  |  (l) The Department may exercise any of its powers under  | 
| 23 |  | this Section or any other law as necessary or desirable for the  |

| 2 |  | competition with the Lottery. The forms of gambling authorized  | 
| 3 |  | by Public Act 101-31 constitute authorized forms of gambling  | 
| 4 |  | that are not in direct competition with the Lottery. | 
| 5 |  |  (n) The private manager shall be subject to a complete  | 
| 6 |  | investigation in the third, seventh, and tenth years of the  | 
| 7 |  | agreement (if the agreement is for a 10-year term) by the  | 
| 8 |  | Department in cooperation with the Auditor General to  | 
| 9 |  | determine whether the private manager has complied with this  | 
| 10 |  | Section and the management agreement. The private manager  |

| 12 |  | the private manager under this subsection. | 
| 13 |  |  (o) The powers conferred by this Section are in addition  |

| 15 |  | any other law or rule is inconsistent with this Section,  | 
| 16 |  | including, but not limited to, provisions of the Illinois  | 
| 17 |  | Procurement Code, then this Section controls as to any  |

| 11 |  |  (Section scheduled to be repealed on December 31, 2026) | 
| 12 |  |  Sec. 5A-12.7. Continuation of hospital access payments on  |

| 14 |  |  (a) To preserve and improve access to hospital services,  | 
| 15 |  | for hospital services rendered on and after July 1, 2020, the  | 
| 16 |  | Department shall, except for hospitals described in subsection  |

| 21 |  | in this Section are approved by the federal government in an  | 
| 22 |  | appropriate State Plan amendment or directed payment preprint;  |

| 3 |  | hospital ceases to qualify for payments from the pool, the  | 
| 4 |  | payments for all hospitals continuing to qualify for payments  | 
| 5 |  | from such pool shall be uniformly adjusted to fully expend the  | 
| 6 |  | aggregate net amount of the pool, with such adjustment being  | 
| 7 |  | effective on the first day of the second month following the  | 
| 8 |  | date the hospital ceases to receive payments from such pool. | 
| 9 |  |  (b) Amounts moved into claims-based rates and distributed  | 
| 10 |  | in accordance with Section 14-12 shall remain in those  | 
| 11 |  | claims-based rates. | 
| 12 |  |  (c) Graduate medical education. | 
| 13 |  |   (1) The calculation of graduate medical education  | 
| 14 |  |  payments shall be based on the hospital's Medicare cost  | 
| 15 |  |  report ending in Calendar Year 2018, as reported in the  | 
| 16 |  |  Healthcare Cost Report Information System file, release  | 
| 17 |  |  date September 30, 2019. An Illinois hospital reporting  | 
| 18 |  |  intern and resident cost on its Medicare cost report shall  | 
| 19 |  |  be eligible for graduate medical education payments. | 
| 20 |  |   (2) Each hospital's annualized Medicaid Intern  |

| 25 |  |  hospital's Medicaid days (Worksheet S3 Part I, Column 7,  |

| 2 |  |  Lines 14, 16-18, and 32). | 
| 3 |  |   (3) An annualized Medicaid indirect medical education  | 
| 4 |  |  (IME) payment is calculated for each hospital using its  | 
| 5 |  |  IME payments (Worksheet E Part A, Line 29, Column 1)  | 
| 6 |  |  multiplied by the percentage that its Medicaid days  | 
| 7 |  |  (Worksheet S3 Part I, Column 7, Lines 2, 3, 4, 14, 16-18,  | 
| 8 |  |  and 32) comprise of its Medicare days (Worksheet S3 Part  | 
| 9 |  |  I, Column 6, Lines 2, 3, 4, 14, and 16-18). | 
| 10 |  |   (4) For each hospital, its annualized Medicaid Intern  | 
| 11 |  |  Resident Cost and its annualized Medicaid IME payment are  | 
| 12 |  |  summed, and, except as capped at 120% of the average cost  | 
| 13 |  |  per intern and resident for all qualifying hospitals as  | 
| 14 |  |  calculated under this paragraph, is multiplied by the  | 
| 15 |  |  applicable reimbursement factor as described in this  | 
| 16 |  |  paragraph, to determine the hospital's final graduate  | 
| 17 |  |  medical education payment. Each hospital's average cost  | 
| 18 |  |  per intern and resident shall be calculated by summing its  | 
| 19 |  |  total annualized Medicaid Intern Resident Cost plus its  | 
| 20 |  |  annualized Medicaid IME payment and dividing that amount  | 
| 21 |  |  by the hospital's total Full Time Equivalent Residents and  | 
| 22 |  |  Interns. If the hospital's average per intern and resident  | 
| 23 |  |  cost is greater than 120% of the same calculation for all  | 
| 24 |  |  qualifying hospitals, the hospital's per intern and  | 
| 25 |  |  resident cost shall be capped at 120% of the average cost  | 
| 26 |  |  for all qualifying hospitals. |

| 3 |  | the date the funds are paid to the MCOs, as indicated by the  | 
| 4 |  | "Paid Date" on the website of the Office of the Comptroller if  | 
| 5 |  | the funds are paid by EFT and the MCOs have received directed  | 
| 6 |  | payment instructions. If funds are not paid through the  | 
| 7 |  | Comptroller by EFT, payment must be made within 7 business  | 
| 8 |  | days of the date actually received by the MCO. The MCO will be  | 
| 9 |  | considered to have paid the pass-through payments when the  | 
| 10 |  | payment remittance number is generated or the date the MCO  | 
| 11 |  | sends the check to the hospital, if EFT information is not  | 
| 12 |  | supplied. If an MCO is late in paying a pass-through payment or  | 
| 13 |  | directed payment as required under this Section (including any  |

| 16 |  | Department equal to 5% of the amount of the pass-through  | 
| 17 |  | payment or directed payment not paid on or before the due date  |

| 21 |  | in the absence of the increased capitation payments under this  | 
| 22 |  | Section shall not be reduced as a consequence of payments made  | 
| 23 |  | under this subsection. The Department shall publish and  |

| 25 |  | quarters, the quarterly calculation of directed payments and  | 
| 26 |  | pass-through payments owed to each hospital from each MCO. All  |

| 9 |  |  required under this subsection, the Department shall  | 
| 10 |  |  establish the amounts that shall be used to calculate such  | 
| 11 |  |  directed payments using the methodologies specified in  | 
| 12 |  |  this paragraph. The Department shall use a single, uniform  | 
| 13 |  |  rate, adjusted for acuity as specified in paragraphs (1)  | 
| 14 |  |  through (12), for all categories of inpatient services  | 
| 15 |  |  provided by each class of hospitals and a single uniform  | 
| 16 |  |  rate, adjusted for acuity as specified in paragraphs (1)  | 
| 17 |  |  through (12), for all categories of outpatient services  | 
| 18 |  |  provided by each class of hospitals. The Department shall  | 
| 19 |  |  establish such amounts so that the total amount of  | 
| 20 |  |  payments to each hospital under this Section in calendar  | 
| 21 |  |  year 2023 is projected to be substantially similar to the  | 
| 22 |  |  total amount of such payments received by the hospital  | 
| 23 |  |  under this Section in calendar year 2021, adjusted for  | 
| 24 |  |  increased funding provided for fixed pool directed  | 
| 25 |  |  payments under subsection (g) in calendar year 2022,  | 
| 26 |  |  assuming that the volume and acuity of claims are held  |

| 2 |  |  payment amounts to be established under this subsection on  | 
| 3 |  |  its website by November 15, 2022.  | 
| 4 |  |   (19) Each hospital shall be paid 1/3 of their  | 
| 5 |  |  quarterly inpatient and outpatient directed payment in  | 
| 6 |  |  each of the 3 months of the Payout Quarter, in accordance  | 
| 7 |  |  with directions provided to each MCO by the Department. | 
| 8 |  |   20 Each MCO shall pay each hospital the Monthly  | 
| 9 |  |  Directed Payment amount as identified by the Department on  | 
| 10 |  |  its quarterly determination report. | 
| 11 |  |  Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection, if  | 
| 12 |  | the Department determines that the actual total hospital  | 
| 13 |  | utilization data that is used to calculate the fixed rate  | 
| 14 |  | directed payments is substantially different than anticipated  | 
| 15 |  | when the rates in this subsection were initially determined  | 
| 16 |  | for unforeseeable circumstances (such as the COVID-19 pandemic  | 
| 17 |  | or some other public health emergency), the Department may  | 
| 18 |  | adjust the rates specified in this subsection so that the  | 
| 19 |  | total directed payments approximate the total spending amount  | 
| 20 |  | anticipated when the rates were initially established.  | 
| 21 |  |  Definitions. As used in this subsection: | 
| 22 |  |    (A) "Payout Quarter" means each calendar quarter,  | 
| 23 |  |  beginning July 1, 2020. |

  | 
| 
 | 
| 1 |  |    (C) "Case mix index" means a hospital specific  | 
| 2 |  |  calculation. For inpatient claims the case mix index  | 
| 3 |  |  is calculated each quarter by summing the relative  | 
| 4 |  |  weight of all inpatient Diagnosis-Related Group (DRG)  | 
| 5 |  |  claims for a category of service in the applicable  | 
| 6 |  |  Determination Quarter and dividing the sum by the  | 
| 7 |  |  number of sum total of all inpatient DRG admissions  | 
| 8 |  |  for the category of service for the associated claims.  | 
| 9 |  |  The case mix index for outpatient claims is calculated  | 
| 10 |  |  each quarter by summing the relative weight of all  | 
| 11 |  |  paid EAPGs in the applicable Determination Quarter and  | 
| 12 |  |  dividing the sum by the sum total of paid EAPGs for the  | 
| 13 |  |  associated claims. | 
| 14 |  |  (i) Beginning January 1, 2021, the rates for directed  | 
| 15 |  | payments shall be recalculated in order to spend the  | 
| 16 |  | additional funds for directed payments that result from  | 
| 17 |  | reduction in the amount of pass-through payments allowed under  | 
| 18 |  | federal regulations. The additional funds for directed  | 
| 19 |  | payments shall be allocated proportionally to each class of  | 
| 20 |  | hospitals based on that class' proportion of services. | 
| 21 |  |   (1) Beginning January 1, 2024, the fixed pool directed  | 
| 22 |  |  payment amounts and the associated annual initial rates  | 
| 23 |  |  referenced in paragraph (6) of subsection (f) for each  | 
| 24 |  |  hospital class shall be uniformly increased by a ratio of  | 
| 25 |  |  not less than, the ratio of the total pass-through  | 
| 26 |  |  reduction amount pursuant to paragraph (4) of subsection  |

| 4 |  |  hospitals comprising the hospital fixed pool directed  | 
| 5 |  |  payment class paid during the preceding calendar year.  | 
| 6 |  |   (2) Beginning January 1, 2024, the fixed rates for the  | 
| 7 |  |  directed payments referenced in paragraph (18) of  | 
| 8 |  |  subsection (h) for each hospital class shall be uniformly  | 
| 9 |  |  increased by a ratio of not less than, the ratio of the  |

| 19 |  |  2020, the Department shall assign quarterly pass-through  | 
| 20 |  |  payments to each class of hospitals equal to one-fourth of  | 
| 21 |  |  the following annual allocations: | 
| 22 |  |    (A) $390,487,095 to safety-net hospitals. |

| 6 |  |  31, 2020, the pass-through payments shall at a minimum  | 
| 7 |  |  ensure hospitals receive a total amount of monthly  | 
| 8 |  |  payments under this Section as received in calendar year  | 
| 9 |  |  2019 in accordance with this Article and paragraph (1) of  | 
| 10 |  |  subsection (d-5) of Section 14-12, exclusive of amounts  | 
| 11 |  |  received through payments referenced in subsection (b). | 
| 12 |  |   (3) For the calendar year beginning January 1, 2023,  | 
| 13 |  |  the Department shall establish the annual pass-through  | 
| 14 |  |  allocation to each class of hospitals and the pass-through  | 
| 15 |  |  payments to each hospital so that the total amount of  | 
| 16 |  |  payments to each hospital under this Section in calendar  |

| 20 |  |  increased funding provided for fixed pool directed  | 
| 21 |  |  payments under subsection (g) in calendar year 2022,  |

| 3 |  |  year thereafter, each hospital's pass-through payment  | 
| 4 |  |  amount shall be reduced proportionally to the reduction of  | 
| 5 |  |  all pass-through payments required by federal regulations. | 
| 6 |  |  (k) At least 30 days prior to each calendar year, the  |

| 6 |  | party's developmental disability or intellectual disability  |

| 11 |  | the revocation of
a Firearm Owner's Identification Card of a  | 
| 12 |  | person who has been adjudicated
delinquent for an offense that  | 
| 13 |  | if
committed by an adult would be a felony if an
application  | 
| 14 |  | for relief has been filed at least 10 years after the  | 
| 15 |  | adjudication
of delinquency and the court determines that the  | 
| 16 |  | applicant should be
granted relief from disability to obtain a  | 
| 17 |  | Firearm Owner's Identification Card.
If the court grants  | 
| 18 |  | relief, the court shall notify the Illinois State
Police that  | 
| 19 |  | the disability has
been removed and that the applicant is  | 
| 20 |  | eligible to obtain a Firearm Owner's
Identification Card.

| 2 |  | the relief if it is established by a preponderance of the  | 
| 3 |  | evidence that the person will not be likely to act in a manner  | 
| 4 |  | dangerous to public safety and that granting relief would not  | 
| 5 |  | be contrary to the public interest. In making this  | 
| 6 |  | determination, the Board shall receive evidence concerning (i)  | 
| 7 |  | the circumstances regarding the firearms disabilities from  | 
| 8 |  | which relief is sought; (ii) the petitioner's mental health  | 
| 9 |  | and criminal history records, if any; (iii) the petitioner's  | 
| 10 |  | reputation, developed at a minimum through character witness  | 
| 11 |  | statements, testimony, or other character evidence; and (iv)  | 
| 12 |  | changes in the petitioner's condition or circumstances since  | 
| 13 |  | the disqualifying events relevant to the relief sought. If  | 
| 14 |  | relief is granted under this subsection or by order of a court  | 
| 15 |  | under this Section, the Director shall as soon as practicable  | 
| 16 |  | but in no case later than 15 business days, update, correct,  | 
| 17 |  | modify, or remove the person's record in any database that the  |

| 3 |  | population, the Office of Firearm Violence Prevention shall  | 
| 4 |  | determine the 10 most violent neighborhoods. When possible,  | 
| 5 |  | this shall be determined by measuring the number of per capita  | 
| 6 |  | fatal and nonfatal firearm-shot victims, excluding  | 
| 7 |  | self-inflicted incidents, from January 1, 2016 through  | 
| 8 |  | December 31, 2020. These 10 communities shall qualify for  | 
| 9 |  | grants under this Act and coordination of other State services  | 
| 10 |  | from the Office of Firearm Violence Prevention. The Office  | 
| 11 |  | shall, after identifying the top 10 neighborhoods, identify an  | 
| 12 |  | additional 7 eligible neighborhoods by considering the number  | 
| 13 |  | of victims in rank order in addition to the per capita rate. If  |

| 15 |  | have the authority to consider adding up to 5 additional  | 
| 16 |  | eligible neighborhoods or clusters of contiguous neighborhoods  | 
| 17 |  | utilizing the same data sets so as to maximize the potential  | 
| 18 |  | impact for firearm violence reduction. For Illinois  | 
| 19 |  | municipalities with less than 1,000,000 residents and more  | 
| 20 |  | than 35,000 residents, the Office of Firearm Violence  | 
| 21 |  | Prevention shall identify the 10 municipalities or contiguous  | 
| 22 |  | geographic areas that have the greatest concentrated firearm  | 
| 23 |  | violence victims. When possible, this shall be determined by  | 
| 24 |  | measuring the number of fatal and nonfatal firearm-shot  | 
| 25 |  | victims, excluding self-inflicted incidents, from January 1,  | 
| 26 |  | 2016 through December 31, 2020 divided by the number of  |

| 2 |  | municipalities or contiguous geographic areas and up to 5  | 
| 3 |  | additional municipalities or contiguous geographic areas  | 
| 4 |  | identified by the Office of Firearm Violence Prevention shall  | 
| 5 |  | qualify for grants under this Act and coordination of other  | 
| 6 |  | State services from the Office of Firearm Violence Prevention.  | 
| 7 |  | The Office of Firearm Violence Prevention shall consider  | 
| 8 |  | factors listed in subsection (a) of Section 35-40 to determine  | 
| 9 |  | up to 5 additional municipalities or contiguous geographic  | 
| 10 |  | areas that qualify for grants under this Act. The Office of  | 
| 11 |  | Firearm Violence Prevention may, subject to appropriation,  | 
| 12 |  | identify up to 5 additional neighborhoods, municipalities,  | 
| 13 |  | contiguous geographic areas, or other local  | 
| 14 |  | government-identified boundary areas to receive funding under  | 
| 15 |  | this Act after considering additional risk factors that  | 
| 16 |  | contribute to community firearm violence. The data analysis to  | 
| 17 |  | identify new eligible neighborhoods and municipalities shall  | 
| 18 |  | be updated to reflect eligibility based on the most recently  | 
| 19 |  | available 5 full years of data no more frequently than once  | 
| 20 |  | every 3 years.  | 
| 21 |  |  (e) The Office of Firearm Violence Prevention shall issue  | 
| 22 |  | a report to the General Assembly no later than January 1 of  | 
| 23 |  | each year that identifies communities within Illinois  | 
| 24 |  | municipalities of 1,000,000 or more residents and  |

| 9 |  | year
to officers of the General Assembly shall be paid in 12  | 
| 10 |  | equal monthly
installments. The first such installment is  | 
| 11 |  | payable on January 31,
1977. All subsequent equal monthly  | 
| 12 |  | installments are payable on the last
working day of the month.  | 
| 13 |  | Prior to the 103rd General Assembly, a member who has held  | 
| 14 |  | office any part of a
month is entitled to compensation for an  | 
| 15 |  | entire month. | 
| 16 |  |  Beginning with the 103rd General Assembly, the  | 
| 17 |  | compensation provided for in this Section to be paid per year  | 
| 18 |  | to members of the General Assembly, including additional sums  | 
| 19 |  | payable per year to officers of the General Assembly, shall be  | 
| 20 |  | paid bi-monthly. Members who resign before completing the  | 
| 21 |  | entire term in office shall be compensated on a prorated  | 
| 22 |  | basis. Members completing the term of a vacancy shall be  | 
| 23 |  | compensated on a prorated basis.  | 
| 24 |  |  Mileage shall be paid at the rate of 20 cents per mile  | 
| 25 |  | before January

of actual  | 
| 2 |  | highway miles necessarily and conveniently traveled by the
 | 
| 3 |  | most feasible route to be present upon convening of the  | 
| 4 |  | sessions of the
General Assembly by such member in each and  | 
| 5 |  | every trip during each
session in going to and returning from  | 
| 6 |  | the seat of government, to be
computed by the Comptroller. A  | 
| 7 |  | member traveling by public
transportation for such purposes,  | 
| 8 |  | however, shall be paid his actual cost
of that transportation  | 
| 9 |  | instead of on the mileage rate if his cost of
public  | 
| 10 |  | transportation exceeds the amount to which he would be  | 
| 11 |  | entitled
on a mileage basis. No member may be paid, whether on  | 
| 12 |  | a mileage basis
or for actual costs of public transportation,  | 
| 13 |  | for more than one such
trip for each week the General Assembly  | 
| 14 |  | is actually in session. Each
member shall also receive an  | 
| 15 |  | allowance of $36 per day for lodging and
meals while in  | 
| 16 |  | attendance at sessions
of the General Assembly before January  | 
| 17 |  | 9, 1985; beginning January 9,
1985, such food and lodging  | 
| 18 |  | allowance shall be equal to the amount per day
permitted to be  | 
| 19 |  | deducted for such expenses under the Internal Revenue Code;
 | 
| 20 |  | however, beginning May 31, 1995, no allowance for food and  | 
| 21 |  | lodging while in
attendance at sessions is authorized for  | 
| 22 |  | periods of time after the last day in
May of each calendar  | 
| 23 |  | year, except (i) if the General Assembly is convened in
 | 
| 24 |  | special session by either the Governor or the presiding  | 
| 25 |  | officers of both
houses, as provided by subsection (b) of  | 
| 26 |  | Section 5 of Article IV of the
Illinois Constitution or (ii) if  |

| 11 |  | contrary, beginning in fiscal year 2012, travel reimbursement  | 
| 12 |  | for
General Assembly members on non-session days shall be
 | 
| 13 |  | calculated using the guidelines set forth by the Legislative
 | 
| 14 |  | Travel Control Board, except that fiscal year 2012, 2013,  | 
| 15 |  | 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 mileage reimbursement  | 
| 16 |  | is set at a rate of $0.39 per mile.  | 
| 17 |  |  If a member dies having received only a portion of the  | 
| 18 |  | amount payable
as compensation, the unpaid balance shall be  | 
| 19 |  | paid to the surviving
spouse of such member, or, if there be  | 
| 20 |  | none, to the estate of such member. |
