Not enough signal yet to read this bill's trajectory — we surface a likelihood only once there's real movement (stage, sponsorship, committee, or votes) to point to.

Prognosis reads this bill's own signals — stage, sponsorship breadth, committee status, recorded votes and cross-state momentum. Odds come from a model trained on which bills have become law.

Summary

Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Provides that the following are discretionary (rather than mandatory) preconditions to Second Chance Probation: (1) making full restitution to the victim or property owner; (2) obtaining or attempting to obtain employment; (3) paying fines and costs; (4) attending specified educational courses; and (5) performing community service. Eliminates a provision which requires a defendant to submit to periodic drug testing at a time and in a manner ordered by the court, but no less than 3 times during the period of probation, with the cost of the testing to be paid by the defendant. Authorizes defense counsel to offer input on the duration of the First Time Weapon Offense Program. Deletes provisions requiring the State's Attorney consent for a defendant to participate in Second Chance Probation or the First Time Weapon Offense Program.
