Law Would Ban Pumping Your Own Gas In Illinois

Gas Pump

We don't think ANYONE enjoys pumping gas- especially in Chicago! 

The "Gas Station Attendant Act" was proposed last week by state Rep. Camille Lilly, a Democrat from Oak Park. 

Under the proposal, which would start January 1, 2021, customers would no longer be allowed to pump their own gas- the pumping would need to be done by a gas station attendant. 

The act was meant to bring up the issue of safety and discuss convenience at the gas pump. 

The bill is being reviewed by the rules committee.
