Creates the Responsibility in Firearm Legislation (RIFL) Act establishing a mandatory licensing program for firearms manufacturers operating in Illinois, administered by the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, effective January 1, 2028

Sets total annual license fees equal to the estimated public health costs and financial burdens from firearm injuries and deaths in Illinois, capped at $866,000,000 in the first program year, with individual manufacturer fees based on market share and adjusted by the proportion of firearms recovered at injury incidents linked to each manufacturer

Imposes civil penalties of up to $1,000,000 per month for unlicensed manufacturers operating in Illinois and up to $10,000 per violation for retailers selling firearms from unlicensed manufacturers

Establishes the RIFL Fund to collect license fees and civil penalties, with proceeds used to provide financial assistance to firearm injury victims for direct costs including medical care, mental health treatment, rehabilitation, funeral expenses, lost wages, and property damage for up to 3 years (or lifetime for permanent disability)

Requires Illinois State Police to report manufacturer information for all firearms recovered at incidents involving firearm injuries, with the Attorney General authorized to investigate violations and bring enforcement actions
