The 97th Illinois General Assembly convened on January 12, 2011 [1] and adjourned sine die on January 8, 2013. [2] Over that period, the Illinois Senate was in session for 137 legislative days, [2] and the Illinois House was in session for 166 legislative days. [3]
All members of the House, and one-third of the members of the Senate, were elected in the 2010 election. The House and Senate both had Democratic Party majorities during this session.
The 97th General Assembly enacted a total of 1,173 bills into law. [4]
On August 17, 2012, Governor Pat Quinn called the General Assembly into special session to address the Illinois pension crisis. [5] No changes to the state pension system were passed. The House and Senate voted to place the Illinois Public Pension Amendment on the November 2012 ballot, which would have amended the Illinois Constitution to require a 60% majority of both houses for any increase to pension benefits. [6] However, the ballot measure did not achieve the required majority of the popular vote. [7]
As part of the redistricting process following the 2010 US Census, the General Assembly approved new congressional and state legislative maps for the following decade. The new maps for the Illinois House and Senate districts were signed into law by the governor on June 3, 2011. [8] As a result, several Republican members of the General Assembly were drawn into the same district. [8] Republican leaders of the House and Senate sued to block the map, but a three-judge panel dismissed their suit in December 2011. [9]
Under the 1970 Illinois Constitution, the Illinois Senate has 59 members, who are elected to overlapping two- and four-year terms. All 59 Senate seats are up for election following decennial redistricting. Because 2010 was the last election year before redistricting based on the 2010 census, the 21 senators elected in 2010 were all elected to two-year terms. [1]
