Greene and Scott Counties Join Other Counties Challenging Constitutionality Of SAFE-T Act
WEST CENTRAL – Greene and Scott Counties have joined the ever-growing number of Illinois Counties to file a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the controversial SAFE-T Act.

The goal of the lawsuit for the Counties would be to stop the law, as written, from going into effect on January 1, 2023. “The Act was voted on and passed in a lame duck legislative session at 4:30 in the morning, with limited opportunity for comment, or debate.
