A bill is moving toward a final vote in the Illinois legislature with amendments that made it even more intrusive and threatening for homeschooling families, an attorney for an opposition group said.

"This bill was written by people who don't understand homeschooling and who are hostile to homeschooling and it shows on every of the 60 pages of this bill," Will Estrada, senior counsel for the Home School Legal Defense Association, told Newsmax.
