Summary of Legislation: (Amended) The bill establishes the Indiana-Illinois Boundary Adjustment
Commission, including six members appointed by the Governor and five members appointed under Illinois
law, to discuss and recommend whether it is advisable to adjust the boundaries between the two states.
Effective Date:  July 1, 2025.
Explanation of State Expenditures: (Revised) Commission Members– The members of the Commission
that are not state employees would be allowed to receive per diem, mileage, and travel reimbursement that
a legislator or lay member of a Legislative interim study committee would receive for their service. Members
that are state employees would only receive travel expense and expenses actually incurred in connection with
the member’s service on the Commission. Member reimbursement would be paid from budgeted
appropriations to the Governor. The first meeting would have to be scheduled by September 1, 2025. 
Governor and Commission Staff– The bill requires the Governor to designate a state agency to serve as staff
for the Commission, potentially increasing workload for the designated agency. The Governor would be
required to notify the Governor of Illinois when the Indiana members to the Commission have been
appointed.
