The SAFE-T Act, passed by Democrats during a late-night lame-duck session without public input or debate, is now under scrutiny as its implementation reveals various issues. Concerns have been raised that these flaws could potentially endanger Illinois families.

Critics argue that the lack of thorough vetting before the law's passage has led to unforeseen consequences affecting community safety. The ongoing exposure of these issues has prompted calls for reassessment and potential amendments to address the risks posed by the legislation.

The SAFE-T Act was intended to reform several aspects of the criminal justice system in Illinois. However, its rapid approval process has left some stakeholders questioning its efficacy and impact on public safety.
