School cell phone ban, human composting bills among hundreds advancing in Springfield – Capitol News IL

The House and Senate both passed versions of a bill to authorize the state treasurer to set up and operate an investment fund that would manage the deposits of nonprofit corporations. Lawmakers passed similar legislation in 2025, but Gov. JB Pritzker vetoed it, saying such a fund could be used to benefit extremist groups that organize as nonprofit corporations.

cell phone bans in schools & allowing human composting both seem like no brainers so hopefully they will pass & become laws.

vegetable gardens especially with good ol’
uncle George moldering with them.
