✦ Synopsis

Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D) signed Senate Bill 2375, effective June 1, 2005, that requires prospective state vendors to disclose the degree to which their contracts with the state would be fulfilled domestically. The law amends the Illinois Procurement Code through a series of new disclosure requirements. It specifically requires contract bidders to disclose where their contract and subcontract work for the state will be performed. If contractors see the potential for outsourcing, they would have to disclose the degree to which the work would be performed outside the U.S.
