Amends multiple Acts related to children by making language changes aimed at gender "neutrality" and "clarity".

Prohibits pro-life limited-services pregnancy centers from using "unfair" competition or "deceptive" practices to prevent individuals from accessing abortion or emergency contraception providers, persuade individuals to use their services, "mislead" in advertising or offering pregnancy-related services, or conduct pregnancy-related services "unfairly" or "deceptively".

Makes Illinois the first state to implement sex-education that aligns with the extremely explicit and perverse National Sex Education Standards (NSES).

Would make elections in Illinois susceptible to corruption and problems. This would include vote by mail ballots with insufficient postage.
