Summary

Amends the Veterinary Medicine and Surgery Practice Act of 2004. Provides that a veterinarian licensed or veterinary technician certified in another state may practice in Illinois in connection with an investigation by law enforcement of an alleged violation of federal or State animal fighting or animal cruelty laws if the law enforcement authority determines that the veterinarian or veterinary technician possesses particular skills, training, or experience not otherwise available within this State and if the law enforcement authority extends an official invitation to the veterinarian or veterinary technician. Further provides that a nonprofit organization qualified under Section 501 (c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 for the purpose of preventing cruelty to animals may, in connection with an investigation by law enforcement of an alleged violation of federal or State animal fighting or animal cruelty laws, establish a temporary facility to receive animals affected by the investigation if the law enforcement authority determines that such a facility is necessary, the law enforcement authority extends an official invitation, and the facility meets certain standards under State law. Effective immediately.
