IL SB3095

Changes the standard for law enforcement objections to concealed carry licenses from "reasonable suspicion" to "specific and articulable reasons or circumstances" that the applicant is a danger to themselves or others or a threat to public safety.

Allows the Concealed Carry Licensing Review Board to request additional information from objecting law enforcement agencies, which must respond within 30 days or the objection becomes moot and the license shall be granted.

Requires the Board to render a decision on objections within 90 days from the time the objection is filed, with failure to decide being grounds for a mandamus action where the Board is liable for all costs and attorney's fees incurred by the applicant.

Requires the Department to automatically object and submit records to the Board when an applicant has 5 or more arrests within 7 years, or 3 or more gang-related offense arrests within 7 years.

Takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
