Governor Bruce Rauner is signing a package of public safety bills. One of the new laws lets retiring state, conservation and Secretary of State Police purchase their badge and firearm, while another encourages officers to get help for mental health issues without worrying about it affecting their job says Governor Rauner.
Another law makes the FOID Card renewal process a little easier by lowering the fee and creating a 60 day Grace Period while the application is being processed. The fourth will help police identify human remains.
