What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, county officers, other than county supervisors, must execute

and file an official bond in an amount specified by statute, or the county board may

provide a schedule or blanket bond that includes any or all of the officials who are

specified by statute, including the county clerk, treasurer, sheriff, clerk of circuit

court, coroner, and register of deeds.

Also under current law, each member of a county veterans service commission

and a county veterans service officer must execute to the county an individual surety

bond. This bill authorizes the members of such a commission and a county veterans

service officer to be included in a county's blanket bond.

Votes

Suspending the rules (to take a vote immediately) needs a two-thirds majority — a higher bar than passing the bill, which needs a simple majority. That's why a suspension motion can show more Ayes than the passage vote that follows it. Glossary
