Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance
115 ILCS 5/2from Ch. 48, par. 1702


Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Act to provide that a graduate student employed by his or her institution of higher education is an "educational employee" within the meaning of the Act. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Includes as a "student" a graduate student being compensated for research on his or her dissertation or thesis topic as approved by his or her graduate department.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
Removes the provision defining "student". Provides instead that "student" includes graduate students who are research assistants primarily performing duties that involve research or graduate assistants primarily performing duties that are pre-professional, but excludes graduate students who are teaching assistants primarily performing duties that involve the delivery and support of instruction and all other graduate assistants.

 Fiscal Note (Illinois Board of Higher Education)
 Any effect the enactment of this legislation may have on state expenditures would be subject to future negotiations with higher education institutions. At this time, it is not possible to determine the effect this legislation would have on state revenues or the expenditure of state funds.

 State Mandates Fiscal Note (Illinois Community College System)
 There is no fiscal impact for community colleges or the ICCB.

 Fiscal Note (Educational Labor Relations Board)
 Although we cannot accurately calculate the total cost to implement this legislation, it will impose an additional cost on agency operations. In light of future budget cuts and the Board's current strain of its limited resources, these additional responsibilities will impose a greater financial burden upon the Board.

House Committee Amendment No. 1 (Tabled 7/24/2004)
Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Act. Makes a technical change in a Section concerning definitions.
