When a bill is introduced to the House, the clerk reads the bill title and it is automatically referred to the Rules Committee. If the Rules Committee thinks that the bill merits further consideration, it is assigned to another committee. In this case, the bill was assigned to the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee is a standing committee of the Illinois House of Representatives.
The bill, as it was introduced in the House by Rep. William Davis (D-30) on Feb. 15, "amends the Riverboat Gambling Act," according to the General Assembly website.
