The law finally took effect in July 2013, following a unanimous ruling from the Illinois Supreme Court. The existing statute, which does not call for parental consent, was approved by lawmakers in 1995 but spent the next 18 years tied up in legal wranglings from special interests. 26 filed Senate Bill 2190, which is identical to HB 1797. Similar legislation was filed during the spring 2019 legislative session, when that bill passed a Senate committee but was not called for a vote on the Senate floor.
Anna Moeller, D-Elgin, today filed House Bill 1797, which calls for lawmakers to dismantle current law requiring an adult family member to be notified when a minor girl seeks an abortion. An attempt to repeal the state’s parental notice of abortion law will be made during the spring session of the Illinois Legislature.
