Amends the State Comptroller Act. Creates the Illinois Gives Initiative, whereby an employee or annuitant may authorize the withholding of a portion of his or her salary, wages, or annuity for payment to Illinois chapters of the American Red Cross whose territories include areas affected by a declaration of disaster. Authorizes the State Comptroller to develop an electronic mechanism whereby an employee or annuitant may register with the Office of the Comptroller for the withholding to be deducted from the next available scheduled pay period, develop policies and procedures necessary for the efficient transmission of the notification of the withholding under this Section to the employee's Payroll Officer or the annuitant's Retirement Agency, and develop policies and procedures necessary for the efficient distribution of the withholdings under this Section to designated Illinois chapters of the American Red Cross. Makes corresponding changes in the State Salary and Annuity Withholding Act. Effective immediately.
