IL HB3670

Department of Corrections cannot require possession of a Firearm Owner's Identification Card (FOID) as a condition of continued employment for correctional officers whose cards were revoked or seized solely due to mental health facility treatment, if the officer has not been determined to pose a clear and present danger by a physician, clinical psychologist, or qualified examiner.

Department retains authority to determine correctional officers' fitness for duty through other means.

Existing collective bargaining agreements in effect on the bill's effective date cannot be modified, but no new collective bargaining agreements may require FOID possession as a condition of employment after the effective date.

Department must document if and why a correctional officer has been determined to pose a clear and present danger.

Defines "mental health facility" and "qualified examiner" according to the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code.
