ETHICS-REVOLVING DOOR

Summary

The bill changes Illinois’ ethics law so that any employer who knowingly offers a job, pay or fee to a former state officer, employee or their close family member who is prohibited by revolving‑door restrictions cannot do so. It gives the Executive and Legislative Ethics Commissions power to enforce the rule and allows a fine up to three times the annual salary that was offered. The change targets former officials, their families and the private firms that might try to hire them, tightening conflict‑of‑interest safeguards.
