Illinois legislators have passed House Bill 4409, which mandates changing the term 'offender' to 'justice-impacted individual' in state laws. The bill, introduced by Democrats, has sparked controversy, with Republicans arguing that it downplays criminal behavior and will cost taxpayers thousands of dollars to update government forms across several agencies. The bill includes adding representation from the Illinois Department of Corrections to the Adult Redeploy Illinois oversight board. It has successfully passed both the House and Senate and now awaits the governor's signature.
