Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

Section 5. The Firearm Owners Identification Card Act is
amended by changing Section 13.1 as follows:
(430 ILCS 65/13.1) (from Ch. 38, par. 83-13.1)
Sec. 13.1. Preemption.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in the Firearm Concealed
Carry Act and subsection subsections (b) and (c) of this
Section, the provisions of any ordinance enacted by any
municipality which requires registration or imposes greater
restrictions or limitations on the acquisition, possession and
transfer of firearms than are imposed by this Act, are not
invalidated or affected by this Act.
(b) Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this Section, the
regulation, licensing, possession, and registration of
handguns and ammunition for a handgun, and the transportation
of any firearm and ammunition by a holder of a valid Firearm
Owner's Identification Card issued by the Department of State
Police under this Act are exclusive powers and functions of
this State. Any ordinance or regulation, or portion of that
ordinance or regulation, enacted on or before the effective
date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly that

SB2130 - 2 - LRB099 12208 RLC 35042 b
purports to impose regulations or restrictions on a holder of a
valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card issued by the
Department of State Police under this Act in a manner that is
inconsistent with this Act, on the effective date of this
amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly, shall be invalid
in its application to a holder of a valid Firearm Owner's
Identification Card issued by the Department of State Police
under this Act.
(c) (Blank). Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this
Section, the regulation of the possession or ownership of
assault weapons are exclusive powers and functions of this
State. Any ordinance or regulation, or portion of that
ordinance or regulation, that purports to regulate the
possession or ownership of assault weapons in a manner that is
inconsistent with this Act, shall be invalid unless the
ordinance or regulation is enacted on, before, or within 10
days after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the
98th General Assembly. Any ordinance or regulation described in
this subsection (c) enacted more than 10 days after the
effective date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General
Assembly is invalid. An ordinance enacted on, before, or within
10 days after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the
98th General Assembly may be amended. The enactment or
amendment of ordinances under this subsection (c) are subject
to the submission requirements of Section 13.3. For the
purposes of this subsection, "assault weapons" means firearms

SB2130 - 3 - LRB099 12208 RLC 35042 b
designated by either make or model or by a test or list of
cosmetic features that cumulatively would place the firearm
into a definition of "assault weapon" under the ordinance.
(d) For the purposes of this Section, "handgun" has the
meaning ascribed to it in Section 5 of the Firearm Concealed
Carry Act.
(e) This Section is a denial and limitation of home rule
