But the Senate did take up several of his proposed changes:

Senators, however, did approve a separate bill containing three minor changes that Quinn recommended.

The measure, awaiting a House vote, would require people stopped by law enforcement to immediately declare they were possessing a concealed firearm. It also would not require signage in most public places where firearms are prohibited, including schools, mass transit and government buildings. The bill also would require reporting of people adjudicated as mentally ill to the Illinois State Police, which is in charge of licensing concealed firearms.

I hope they defined "immediately" in the language on that first point...
