Summary

The bill adds a new section to Illinois’ Property Tax Code that bars any home used as the primary residence of a child sex offender from getting the homestead exemption beginning with the 2027 tax year. It applies to individuals convicted of, or otherwise adjudicated for, a range of offenses against victims under 18, or who are certified as sexually dangerous.
