Bill Filed to Change School Policy in regards to Hunting Rifles
Representative Reginald Phillips (Republican Charleston, Illinois) introduced HB5985 on February 11, 2016.HB5985 - SCH CD-EXPULSION-HUNTING RIFLE
Amends the School Code. With respect to the suspension or expulsion of pupils, provides that if a firearm generally used for hunting purposes is found to be in a student's vehicle and the student has not faced prior disciplinary action for bringing a weapon to school, then the school board may not expel the student (rather than requiring expulsion for a period of not less than one year). Provides that the school board may suspend the student for no more than 3 days instead. Provides that these provisions do not apply to a handgun as defined in the Firearm Concealed Carry Act or any firearm located outside of the student's vehicle on school property.
