Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Human Rights Act. In the Employment Article, deletes language that excludes, from the definition of "employer", certain entities and facilities conducted by and for those who rely upon treatment by prayer through spiritual means. Adds language that excludes, from the definition of "employer": any religious organization, association, or society, or any nonprofit institution or organization operated, supervised, or controlled by or in conjunction with a religious organization, association, or society; and any institution conducted by and for those who rely upon treatment by prayer through spiritual means. Provides that nothing in the Act shall be construed to require any employer to comply with the Act in violation of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Boy Scouts of America v. Dale. In the Public Accommodations Article, changes the exemption for distinctly private facilities so that it applies to single-sex private facilities that are distinctly private in nature, such as restrooms, bathrooms, shower rooms, changing rooms, bath houses, health clubs, and other similar facilities.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
In the Public Accommodations Article, changes the exemption for distinctly private facilities so that it applies only as to discrimination based on sex.

 House Bill 1063 (H-AM 1) would not impact any public pension fund or retirement system in Illinois.

 Judicial Note (H-AM 1) (Admin Office of the Illinois Courts)
 Would neither increase nor decrease the number of judges needed in the state.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
In the Employment Article, in a provision excluding certain religious entities from the definition of "employer", adds a provision that the exception applies to any religious organization, association, or society, or any nonprofit institution or organization "acting upon the tenets of its faith". In the Employment Article, in a provision that nothing in the Act shall be construed to require any employer to comply with the Act in violation of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Boy Scouts of America v. Dale, provides that the provision does not apply if that decision is overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court. In the Public Accommodations Article, changes the exemption for distinctly private facilities so that it applies to any facility, as to discrimination based on sex, that restricts the use of public accommodations to individuals of one sex and is distinctly private in nature, such as restrooms, bathrooms, shower rooms, changing rooms, bath houses, health clubs and other similar facilities for which the Department of Human Rights, in its rules, grants additional exemptions based on bona fide considerations of public policy.
