Official Journal

May 2017 Issue

From: Edward W. Hoes

Executive Director

There are over 50 different types of bills pertaining to law enforcement

in one way or another.

Law Enforcement pensions have been targeted in the Illinois General Assembly for the past

several years.

HB 418: Return to Service: is one bill that all law enforcement officers should be concerned

about. This bill if passed states that if you are retired and collecting a police pension and if

you go to work for another municipal police department as either a police officer or chief,

you MUST stop collecting your current pension until you leave the “NEW” job. This bill

passed the House last year but failed in the Senate. Everyone should contact their

legislators and have them oppose this bill.

Some of the other bills of interest are:

SB58: Police Shooting-Drug Test would provide that each law enforcement agency adopt a

written policy regarding drug testing following an officer involved shooting and have the

officer sub submit to an alcohol and drug test. (Oppose)

HB351: Crim CD -Sexual Assault: This would provide that the sentence for aggravated

criminal sexual assault, which does not otherwise provide for an enhanced penalty, is a

Class X felony for which 5 years shall be added to the term of imprisonment imposed by the

court. It would also provide that the sentence for predatory criminal sexual assault of a

child, which does not otherwise provide for an enhanced penalty, is a class X felony with a

minimum term of imprisonment of 11 years, rather than 6 years.

HB270: Investigations of Police: This would create the Law Enforcement Sexual Assault

Investigation Act: This would provide that allegations of sexual assault by a police officer

while performing his or her duties shall immediately be reported to the police officer’s

supervisory or command personnel and an independent law enforcement agency.

HB309: Sex Offender Reg Loss Employment: Would provide that a registered sex offender

Page 4: Illinois Police Association Official Journal · 2017-06-23 · Illinois Police Association Official Journal Page 2 Illinois Police Association License Plates are multi-year and may

Volume 70, Issue 2 Page 4

who loses his or her job must report in person to the law enforcement agency with which

he or she last registered his or her loss of employment within 3 days of that loss of

employment.

HB233: Cram ID-Sealing Records: Would provide that records of conviction for any

non-violent offense or any criminal offense that did not result in bodily harm or death to

another person may be sealed 10 years after the termination of the petitioner’s last

sentence. (Oppose)

HB217: Crim CD-Cyber Bullying; This bill speaks for itself.

For more information on these bills and others go to www.ilga.gov.

The Sherwood Youth Camp law suit is finally being transferred down to Knox County. I have

been informed that we are waiting for all of the files to be transferred down to Knox

County Court, which might take several months. Attorney Jim Skinner, of Galesburg will

take over the case once we are ready to proceed. Stay tuned for more information. I hope

that this might be resolved within the next several years. We can only hope.

I’m asking again that everyone do their best in signing up new members as to membership

totals are low compared to last year. We need everyone to do their part. If you have any

suggestions as to how we can get new members involved, please feel free to contact me at

any time.

The 116th Annual Conference if fast approaching. Set for September 15th & 16th, 2017 the

conference will be held at the Holiday Inn Gurnee Convention Center, 6161 West Grand Ave,

Gurnee, Illinois. Room rates are $99.00 per night plus tax for either single or double. Call

847-336-6300 to make your reservation.

This being an election year for the State Executive Board, letters were sent out to all of the

current State Elected Officers and to all Division Chairmen reminding them of the same and

that if anyone is interested in running for a State Executive Board position, that their letter

of intent has to be in the hands of the main office no later than March 17th, 2017. Any

letters received after this date will not be accepted. The nominating committee will be

meeting before the April 4th, 2017 Executive Board Meeting to review the letters received

and make their recommendations. Letters received were:

Illinois Police Association Official Journal May 2017 From: Christopher Surdel

IPA President

Seems like now that the contentious election season is over, the "picking" on police officers

has slowed down a bit. It's funny how some political groups like to use law enforcement,

mostly in a bad light, to advance their political views. I was a police officer for more than

29 years and I don't ever remember asking anyone what political party they affiliate with

before I arrested them. I would arrest whoever broke the law regardless of the political

party they back. No matter who wins or loses any political election, we in the Law

Enforcement profession will always do our job.

In May I will be attending my second Illinois Police Officer's Memorial as President down in

Springfield. It seems like just yesterday that I was reading the prayer at the church service.

Reading the prayer at the church service in front of the family members of our fallen

heroes and my Law Enforcement colleagues is one of the biggest honors that the President

can do.

In February, I attended the Black Hawk Division's Holiday Party with my wife Michelle. The

Black Hawk Division sure knows how to throw a party. My wife and I had a great time and

we won several raffle prizes. We would like to thank the Black Hawk Division for all their

hospitality, and we'll see you guys again next year.

Remember, The 2017 Conference will be coming up fast. This year's conference is an

election year and we all need to come out and support John Idleburg for President. The

conference will be held at the Gurnee Holiday Inn & Convention Center on September 15th

& 16th. Reserve those dates in your calendar now.

Thanks

Christopher Surdel

Congratulations to all of the winners.

Old Business: Marketing & Technology Committee Report; Vice President Robert Nichols

stated that the committee discussed the following items since the last board meeting.

1. They want the members of the IPA to be able to edit their own home address, phones

Page 10: Illinois Police Association Official Journal · 2017-06-23 · Illinois Police Association Official Journal Page 2 Illinois Police Association License Plates are multi-year and may

Volume 70, Issue 2 Page 10

numbers and whatever else they might want to change.

2. Want to be able to borrow from the Death Benefit Fund to make changes to the web-

site. There was some research done, by who we don’t know, on prices for membership

updates to the web-site at the price of $950.00 a month for 500 members or $12,000.00

a year for the IPA Question was asked by Director Ed Hoes of our current web-master

was asked what it would cost to update the site and the answer was NO.

3. Committee agrees we need to offer something else to our members. This has been dis-

cussed for years but no one has come up with an idea. Maybe this committee will find a

benefit that will save the Association. We can only hope.

4. The committee wants to send out letters to all of the PUL members asking them if they

want a hard copy of the “Journal” to pay $20.00 per year. My question is why the com-

mittee wants to penalize the PUL members as they have paid their dues all these years

and can get the “Journal” free by printing it or looking at it on the Web-site.

5. Need to get monthly updates out to all the members in an e-mail update.

6. Discussed briefly Associate “B” memberships. (Why not up the Associate “B” member-

ship dues.)

The next conference call of the committee will be sometime in April.

New Business; this being an election year, the Nominating Committee, which is made up of

all Division Chairman Meet before the Executive Board meeting to review the letters of in-

tent that were received by March 17th, 2017. Chairman present were; Greg Elliott,

(Chairman), Daryl Williams, Ken Thomason, Jason Shaw, Rich Iverson, Brian Kuratko and

Lindsey May.

There were seven members who submitted letters of intent to the State office.
