1 | AN ACT concerning revenue.
| ||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||
4 | Section 5. The Department of Human Services Act is amended | ||||||
5 | by adding Section 10-6 as follows: | ||||||
6 | (20 ILCS 1305/10-6 new)
| ||||||
7 | Sec. 10-6. The Crisis Nursery Fund. The Crisis Nursery Fund | ||||||
8 | is created as a special fund in the State treasury. From | ||||||
9 | appropriations to the Department from the Fund, the Department | ||||||
10 | shall make grants, in equal amounts, to crisis nurseries | ||||||
11 | located in Illinois. For the purposes of this Section, a | ||||||
12 | "crisis nursery" is an organization licensed by the Department | ||||||
13 | that operates on a continuous basis and provides immediate | ||||||
14 | crisis child care, respite care, parent support, and parent | ||||||
15 | education groups. A child care center does not qualify as a | ||||||
16 | crisis nursery under this Section.
| ||||||
17 | Section 10. The State Finance Act is amended by adding | ||||||
18 | Section 5.723 as follows: | ||||||
19 | (30 ILCS 105/5.723 new)

| |||||||
1 | Section 15. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by | ||||||
2 | adding Section 507SS as follows: | ||||||
3 | (35 ILCS 5/507SS new)
| ||||||
4 | Sec. 507SS. The crisis nursery checkoff. For taxable years | ||||||
5 | ending on or after December 31, 2009, the Department shall | ||||||
6 | print, on its standard individual income tax form, a provision | ||||||
7 | indicating that, if the taxpayer wishes to contribute to the | ||||||
8 | Crisis Nursery Fund, as authorized by this amendatory Act of | ||||||
9 | the 96th General Assembly, then he or she may do so by stating | ||||||
10 | the amount of the contribution (not less than $1) on the return | ||||||
11 | and indicating that the contribution will reduce the taxpayer's | ||||||
12 | refund or increase the amount of payment to accompany the | ||||||
13 | return. The taxpayer's failure to remit any amount of the | ||||||
14 | increased payment reduces the contribution accordingly. This | ||||||
15 | Section does not apply to any amended return.
| ||||||
16 | Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon | ||||||
17 | becoming law.
