IL SB3564

Creates the Facial Recognition Technology in Law Enforcement Act requiring law enforcement agencies using this technology to conduct compliance audits every 3 years starting January 1, 2027, with results reported to Illinois State Police.

Prohibits law enforcement from using facial recognition technology for real-time or live identification, for targeting individuals based on protected characteristics (race, religion, gender, disability, housing status, etc.), or for surveilling constitutionally protected activities without reasonable suspicion of criminal conduct.

Requires Illinois State Police to publish a statewide report every 5 years starting January 1, 2030 assessing accuracy, reliability, and policy implementation of facial recognition technology across law enforcement agencies.

Mandates that facial recognition results cannot serve as the sole basis for establishing probable cause for arrest warrants or search warrants under the Code of Criminal Procedure.

Requires the Law Enforcement Training Standards Board to publish model statewide policy and curriculum on facial recognition and emerging technologies, and mandates agencies publicly disclose their data management policies and any third-party facial recognition systems used.
