ADD Illinois, Constitutional Amendment passed in the General Election on November 4, 2014

Marsy's Law was also a ballot measure on the Illinois on November 4, 2014, labeled as the Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights. The Constitutional Amendment was passed by both the Illinois House and Senate to get on the ballot; voters then overwhelmingly passed the Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights amendment with 78 percent approval. (reference: http://www.illinoishomepage.net/news/capitol-news/crime-victims-push-for-stronger-rights). The amendment is modeled after Marsy’s Law in California. Like California, Illinois now has some of the strongest protections of crime victims’ rights in the country. Marsy’s Law currently has teams working to get crime victims and their loved ones greater rights in five other states: Hawaii, Nevada, North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana. The goal is to pass laws or amend the constitution in these states in 2016. This effort will not stop in these states; 18 state constitutions and even the U.S. Constitution have no enumerated rights for victims and their loved ones. (need to reference this, perhaps to the Marsy’s Law website)^[1]

ADD to "Content" section • 11 Illinois voters pass Marsy’s Law/Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights o 11.1 Editorial boards opposed o 11.2 Editorial boards in favor o 11.3 Results • 12 Efforts to bring Marsy’s Law to other states (Link text to sections on the page.)

ADD section =Headline "Illinois voters pass Marsy’s Law/Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights"
