A BILL FOR

AN ACT concerning health.

Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, represented in the General Assembly:

Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Compassionate Use and Research of Entheogens Act.

Section 5. Findings. The General Assembly finds that:

(1) The War on Drugs has given rise to significant financial and social costs, and the policies behind the War on Drugs reflect neither a modern understanding of substance use nor the actual risks or potential therapeutic benefits of the substances that have been criminalized.

(2) Moreover, criminalization has not deterred drug use. Instead, it has made drug use less safe and has created an unregulated, underground market in which dosages are difficult to verify and dangerous adulterants, such as fentanyl, are common.

(3) Lack of honest drug education has laid the groundwork for decades of misinformation, stigma, and cultural appropriation, which have all contributed to increasing the dangers of drug use.

(4) Harm reduction tools, including drug-checking kits, scales, and capsules, allow users to make safe and more accurate, evidence-based decisions about their personal use of these substances, and allowing the use of such tools can increase public health and safety.

(5) Research is advancing to support the use of psychedelic compounds, along with psychotherapy, to treat mental health disorders, such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and substance use disorder.

(6) Voters of the city and county of Denver, Colorado approved Ordinance 301 in May of 2019, making the personal possession and use of the natural medicine psilocybin by adults the lowest level of law enforcement priority in Denver and to prohibit the city and county from spending resources enforcing related penalties.

(7) Measures 109 and 110 in Oregon, which both passed in November 2020, established a regulated psilocybin therapy system in Oregon to provide people therapeutic access to psilocybin and decriminalized the personal possession of all drugs.

(8) Almost 20 countries around the world, including Portugal, the Czech Republic, and Spain, have expressly or effectively decriminalized the personal use of all substances.

(9) The City of Oakland, California, and the City of Santa Cruz, California have passed resolutions decriminalizing or deprioritizing the enforcement of laws regulating the possession, use, and propagation of psychedelic plants and fungi. Since June 2019, the following cities have also decriminalized the possession, use, and propagation of psychedelic plants and fungi at the local level: Ann Arbor, Michigan; Somerville, Massachusetts; and Cambridge, Massachusetts. In 2020, Washington, D.C., passed Initiative 81 to decriminalize and deprioritize the enforcement of laws regulating the possession and use of psychedelic plants and fungi with 76% voter approval.

(10) The State of Colorado passed Proposition 122 in November of 2022, decriminalizing the possession of psychedelic plants and fungi and eventually allowing state-licensed treatment centers to administer the compounds of psychedelic plants and fungi under the supervision of trained staff.

(11) To transition away from criminalization models while protecting people who use or may use drugs and reduce negative environmental or cultural impacts, it is necessary to review the full legal context in which these changes to the law are made. It is also necessary to incorporate evidence-based policy, consult with experts, and maintain open discourse based in harm reduction, reciprocity, and human rights during the process of developing alternative regulatory systems.

(12) Criminalizing psychedelic plants and fungi has denied people access to accurate education and harm reduction information related to the use of psychedelic compounds and limited the development of appropriate training for first responders and multi-responders, including law enforcement, emergency medical services, and fire services.

(13) Illinoisans deserve more tools to address mental health issues, including approaches using psychedelic plants and fungi that are grounded in treatment, recovery, cultural competency, and wellness rather than criminalization, suffering, and punishment.

(14) This Act will allow for the noncommercial, personal use and sharing of specified controlled substances, including for the purpose of group counseling, community-based healing, or other related services.

(15) These changes in law will not displace any restrictions on driving or operating a vehicle while impaired, an employer's ability to restrict the use of controlled substances by its employees, or the legal standard for negligence.

(16) Peyote is specifically excluded from the list of substances to be decriminalized, including any cultivation, harvest, extraction, tincture, or other product manufactured or derived from it, because of the nearly endangered status of the peyote plant and the special significance peyote holds in Native American spirituality. Furthermore, this Act does not amend or repeal paragraph (12) of subsection (d) of Section 204 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, which identifies peyote and its derivatives as a Schedule I drug.

(17) The State fully respects and supports the continued Native American possession and use of peyote under federal law, 42 U.S.C. 1996a, understanding that Native Americans in the United States were persecuted and prosecuted for their ceremonial practices, including the use of peyote, for more than a century, and had to fight numerous legal and political battles to achieve the current protected status. The enactment of this legislation does not intend to explicitly or implicitly undermine that status.

(18) Research conducted by domestic and international medical institutions indicates that psilocybin is efficacious and safe for the treatment of a variety of mental health conditions, including, but not limited to, addiction, depression, anxiety disorders, headache disorders, and end-of-life psychological distress.

(19) The United States Food and Drug Administration has:

(A) determined that preliminary clinical evidence indicates that psilocybin may demonstrate substantial improvement over available therapies for treatment-resistant depression; and

(B) granted a "Breakthrough Therapy" designation for a treatment that uses psilocybin as a therapy for such depression.

(20) During the program development period, the Department of Public Health, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, the Illinois State Police, and the Department of Revenue shall:

(A) examine, publish, and distribute to the public available medical, psychological, and scientific studies, research, and other information relating to the safety and efficacy of psilocybin in treating mental health conditions; and

(B) adopt rules and regulations for the eventual implementation of a comprehensive regulatory framework that will allow persons 21 years of age and older in this State to be provided psilocybin services.

(21) An Advisory Board shall be established for the purpose of advising and making recommendations for program development.

Section 10. Purposes.

(a) The purpose of this Act is to establish a new, compassionate, and effective approach to entheogens by:

(1) adopting a public health and harm reduction approach to natural medicines by removing criminal penalties for the possession of some entheogens for personal use by adults who are 21 years of age or older;

(2) developing and promoting public education related to the use of entheogens and appropriate training for first responders;

(3) reducing the prevalence of behavioral health disorders among adults in this State to improve the physical, mental, and social well-being of all people in this State;

All returns required to be filed and payments required to be made under this Article shall be by electronic means. Psilocybin retailers who demonstrate hardship in paying electronically may petition the Department to waive the electronic payment requirement.

Any amount that is required to be shown or reported on any return or other document under this Article shall, if the amount is not a whole-dollar amount, be increased to the nearest whole-dollar amount if the fractional part of a dollar is $0.50 or more and decreased to the nearest whole-dollar amount if the fractional part of a dollar is less than $0.50. If a total amount of less than $1 is payable, refundable, or creditable, the amount shall be disregarded if it is less than $0.50 and shall be increased to $1 if it is $0.50 or more.

The psilocybin retailer making the return provided for in this Section shall also pay to the Department, in accordance with this Section, the amount of tax imposed by this Article, less a discount of 2% per return period, which is allowed to reimburse the psilocybin retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records, collecting tax, preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax, and supplying data to the Department upon request. No discount may be claimed by a psilocybin retailer on returns not timely filed and for taxes not timely remitted. No discount may be claimed by a taxpayer for any return that is not filed electronically. No discount may be claimed by a taxpayer for any payment that is not made electronically, unless a waiver has been granted under this Section.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article concerning the time within which a psilocybin retailer may file a return, any such psilocybin retailer who ceases to engage in the kind of business that makes the person responsible for filing returns under this Article shall file a final return under this Article with the Department within one month after discontinuing the business.

Each psilocybin retailer shall make estimated payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd, and last day of the month during which tax liability to the Department is incurred. The payments shall be in an amount not less than the lower of either 22.5% of the psilocybin retailer's actual tax liability for the month or 25% of the psilocybin retailer's actual tax liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of the quarter-monthly payments shall be credited against the final tax liability of the psilocybin retailer's return for that month. If any such quarter-monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the psilocybin retailer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due as a payment and the amount of the quarter-monthly payment actually and timely paid, except insofar as the psilocybin retailer has previously made payments for that month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.

If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the taxpayer's liabilities under this Article, as shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The credit evidenced by the credit memorandum may be assigned by the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Article, in accordance with reasonable rules to be prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the taxpayer may credit the excess payment against tax liability subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Article, in accordance with reasonable rules prescribed by the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's discount shall be reduced, if necessary, to reflect the difference between the credit taken and that actually due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the difference. If a psilocybin retailer fails to sign a return within 30 days after the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department is received by the psilocybin retailer, the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.

Such records need not be maintained on the licensed premises but must be maintained in the State. However, all original invoices or copies thereof covering purchases of psilocybin must be retained on the licensed premises for a period of 90 days after such purchase, unless the Department has granted a waiver in response to a written request in cases where records are kept at a central business location within the State. The Department shall adopt rules regarding the eligibility for a waiver, revocation of a waiver, and requirements and standards for maintenance and accessibility of records located at a central location under a waiver provided under this Section.

(b) Books, records, papers, and documents that are required by this Article to be kept shall, at all times during the usual business hours of the day, be subject to inspection by the Department or its duly authorized agents and employees. The books, records, papers, and documents for any period with respect to which the Department is authorized to issue a notice of tax liability shall be preserved until the expiration of that period.

(j) Any person whose principal place of business is in this State and who is charged with a violation under this Section shall be tried in the county where his or her principal place of business is located unless he or she asserts a right to be tried in another venue.

(k) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (h), a prosecution for a violation described in this Section may be commenced within 3 years after the commission of the act constituting the violation.

Section 405. Arrest; search and seizure without warrant. Any duly authorized employee of the Department: (i) may arrest without warrant any person committing in the employee's presence a violation of any of the provisions of this Article; (ii) may without a search warrant inspect all psilocybin located in any place of business; (iii) may seize any psilocybin in the possession of the retailer in violation of this Act; and (iv) may seize any psilocybin on which the tax imposed by this Act has not been paid. The psilocybin seized is subject to confiscation and forfeiture as provided in Sections 415 and 416.

Section 410. Seizure and forfeiture. After seizing any psilocybin as provided in this Article, the Department must hold a hearing and determine whether the retailer was properly registered to sell the psilocybin at the time of its seizure by the Department. The Department shall give not less than 20 days' notice of the time and place of the hearing to the owner of the psilocybin, if the owner is known, and also to the person in whose possession the psilocybin was found, if that person is known and if the person in possession is not the owner of the psilocybin. If neither the owner nor the person in possession of the psilocybin is known, the Department must cause publication of the time and place of the hearing to be made at least once in each week for 3 weeks successively in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where the hearing is to be held.

If, as the result of the hearing, the Department determines that the retailer was not properly registered at the time the psilocybin was seized, the Department must enter an order declaring the psilocybin confiscated and forfeited to the State, to be held by the Department for disposal by it as provided in Section 416. The Department must give notice of the order to the owner of the psilocybin, if the owner is known, and also to the person in whose possession the psilocybin was found, if that person is known and if the person in possession is not the owner of the psilocybin.

(a) If a peace officer of this State or any duly authorized officer or employee of the Department has reason to believe that any violation of this Article or a rule of the Department for the administration and enforcement of this Article has occurred and that the person violating this Article or rule has in that person's possession any psilocybin in violation of this Article or a rule of the Department for the administration and enforcement of this Article, that peace officer, or officer or employee of the Department, may file or cause to be filed his or her complaint in writing, verified by affidavit, with any court within whose jurisdiction the premises to be searched are situated, stating the facts upon which the belief is founded, the premises to be searched, and the property to be seized, and procure a search warrant and execute that warrant. Upon the execution of the search warrant, the peace officer, or officer or employee of the Department, executing the search warrant shall make due return of the warrant to the court issuing the warrant, together with an inventory of the property taken under the warrant. The court must then issue process against the owner of the property if the owner is known; otherwise, process must be issued against the person in whose possession the property is found, if that person is known. In case of inability to serve process upon the owner or the person in possession of the property at the time of its seizure, notice of the proceedings before the court must be given in the same manner as required by the law governing cases of attachment. Upon the return of the process duly served or upon the posting or publishing of notice made, as appropriate, the court or jury, if a jury is demanded, shall proceed to determine whether the property seized was held or possessed in violation of this Article or a rule of the Department for the administration and enforcement of this Article. If a violation is found, judgment shall be entered confiscating the property and forfeiting it to the State and ordering its delivery to the Department. In addition, the court may tax and assess the costs of the proceedings.

(b) When any psilocybin has been declared forfeited to the State by the Department, as provided in Section III and this Section, and when all proceedings for the judicial review of the Department's decision have terminated, the Department shall, to the extent that its decision is sustained on review, destroy or maintain and use such psilocybin in an undercover capacity.

(c) The Department may, before any destruction of psilocybin, permit the true holder of trademark rights in the psilocybin to inspect such psilocybin in order to assist the Department in any investigation regarding such psilocybin.

The Department of Revenue shall transfer quarterly the moneys in the Illinois Psilocybin Fund to the Psilocybin Control and Regulation Fund.

Section 425. Illinois Psilocybin Fund; payment of expenses. All moneys received by the Department of Revenue under Sections 355 through this Section shall be deposited into the Illinois Psilocybin Fund. The Department of Revenue may pay expenses for the administration and enforcement of Sections 355 through this Section out of moneys received from the tax imposed under Section 360. Amounts necessary to pay administrative and enforcement expenses are continuously appropriated to the Department of Revenue from the Illinois Psilocybin Fund.

Section 430. Incorporation by reference. All of the provisions of Sections 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 8, 9, 10, 11, 11a, and 12 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act that are not inconsistent with this Act, apply to clients, legal entities, licensees, licensee representatives, psilocybin product manufacturers, service centers, service center operators, and facilitators to the same extent as if those provisions were included in this Act. References in the incorporated Sections of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act to retailers, to sellers, or to persons engaged in the business of selling tangible personal property mean distributors when used in this Act. References in the incorporated Sections to sales of tangible personal property mean sales of tobacco products when used in this Act.

Section 435. Registration under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. A retailer maintaining a place of business in this State, if required to register under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, need not obtain an additional certificate of registration under this Act, but shall be deemed to be sufficiently registered by virtue of his being registered under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. Every retailer maintaining a place of business in this State, if not required to register under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, shall apply to the Department of Revenue (upon a form prescribed and furnished by the Department of Revenue) for a certificate of registration under this Act. In completing such application, the applicant shall furnish such information as the Department of Revenue may reasonably require. Upon approval of an application for certificate of registration, the Department of Revenue shall issue, without charge, a certificate of registration to the applicant. Such certificate of registration shall be displayed at the address which the applicant states in his or her application to be the principal place of business or location from which he or she will act as a retailer in this State. If the applicant will act as a retailer in this State from other places of business or locations, he shall list the addresses of such additional places of business or locations in this application for certificate of registration, and the Department of Revenue shall issue a sub-certificate of registration to the applicant for each such additional place of business or location. Each sub-certificate of registration shall be conspicuously displayed at the place for which it is issued. Such sub-certificate of registration shall bear the same registration number as that appearing upon the certificate of registration to which such sub-certificates of registration relate. Where a retailer operates more than one place of business which is subject to registration under this Section and such businesses are substantially different in character or are engaged in under different trade names or are engaged in under other substantially dissimilar circumstances (so that it is more practicable, from an accounting, auditing, or bookkeeping standpoint, for such businesses to be separately registered), the Department of Revenue may require or permit such person to apply for and obtain a separate certificate of registration for each such business or for any of such businesses instead of registering such person, as to all such businesses, under a single certificate of registration supplemented by related sub-certificates of registration. No certificate of registration shall be issued to any person who is in default to the State for moneys due hereunder.

The Department of Revenue may, in its discretion, upon application, authorize the collection of the tax herein imposed by any retailer not maintaining a place of business within this State, who, to the satisfaction of the Department of Revenue, furnishes adequate security to insure collection and payment of the tax. Such retailer shall be issued, without charge, a permit to collect such tax. When so authorized, it shall be the duty of such retailer to collect the tax upon all tangible personal property sold to his knowledge for use within this State, in the same manner and subject to the same requirements, including the furnishing of a receipt to the purchaser (if demanded by the purchaser), as a retailer maintaining a place of business within this State. The receipt given to the purchaser shall be sufficient to relieve him or her from further liability for the tax to which such receipt may refer. Such permit may be revoked by the Department as provided herein.

Section 440. Severability. The provisions of this Act are severable under Section 1.31 of the Statute on Statutes.

Section 900. The Freedom of Information Act is amended by changing Section 7 as follows:

(5 ILCS 140/7)

Sec. 7. Exemptions.

(1) When a request is made to inspect or copy a public record that contains information that is exempt from disclosure under this Section, but also contains information that is not exempt from disclosure, the public body may elect to redact the information that is exempt.

(v) disclose unique or specialized investigative techniques other than those generally used and known or disclose internal documents of correctional agencies related to detection, observation, or investigation of incidents of crime or misconduct, and disclosure would result in demonstrable harm to the agency or public body that is the recipient of the request;

(vii) obstruct an ongoing criminal investigation by the agency that is the recipient of the request.

(d-5) A law enforcement record created for law enforcement purposes and contained in a shared electronic record management system if the law enforcement agency that is the recipient of the request did not create the record, did not participate in or have a role in any of the events which are the subject of the record, and only has access to the record through the shared electronic record management system.

(e-8) Records requested by a person committed to the Department of Corrections, Department of Human Services Division of Mental Health, or a county jail, the disclosure of which would result in the risk of harm to any person or the risk of an escape from a jail or correctional institution or facility.

(e-9) Records requested by a person in a county jail or committed to the Department of Corrections or Department of Human Services Division of Mental Health, containing personal information pertaining to the person's victim or the victim's family, including, but not limited to, a victim's home address, home telephone number, work or school address, work telephone number, social security number, or any other identifying information, except as may be relevant to a requester's current or potential case or claim.

(e-10) Law enforcement records of other persons requested by a person committed to the Department of Corrections, Department of Human Services Division of Mental Health, or a county jail, including, but not limited to, arrest and booking records, mug shots, and crime scene photographs, except as these records may be relevant to the requester's current or potential case or claim.

(f) Preliminary drafts, notes, recommendations, memoranda, and other records in which opinions are expressed, or policies or actions are formulated, except that a specific record or relevant portion of a record shall not be exempt when the record is publicly cited and identified by the head of the public body. The exemption provided in this paragraph (f) extends to all those records of officers and agencies of the General Assembly that pertain to the preparation of legislative documents.

(g) Trade secrets and commercial or financial information obtained from a person or business where the trade secrets or commercial or financial information are furnished under a claim that they are proprietary, privileged, or confidential, and that disclosure of the trade secrets or commercial or financial information would cause competitive harm to the person or business, and only insofar as the claim directly applies to the records requested.

The exemption contained in this item does not apply to the identity of a privately held company within the investment portfolio of a private equity fund, unless the disclosure of the identity of a privately held company may cause competitive harm.

(h) Proposals and bids for any contract, grant, or agreement, including information which if it were disclosed would frustrate procurement or give an advantage to any person proposing to enter into a contractor agreement with the body, until an award or final selection is made. Information prepared by or for the body in preparation of a bid solicitation shall be exempt until an award or final selection is made.

(i) Valuable formulae, computer geographic systems, designs, drawings, and research data obtained or produced by any public body when disclosure could reasonably be expected to produce private gain or public loss. The exemption for "computer geographic systems" provided in this paragraph (i) does not extend to requests made by news media as defined in Section 2 of this Act when the requested information is not otherwise exempt and the only purpose of the request is to access and disseminate information regarding the health, safety, welfare, or legal rights of the general public.

(35 ILCS 1010/1-45)

Sec. 1-45. Jurisdiction of the Tax Tribunal.

(a) Except as provided by the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of the State of Illinois, or any statutes of this State, including, but not limited to, the State Officers and Employees Money Disposition Act, the Tax Tribunal shall have original jurisdiction over all determinations of the Department reflected on a Notice of Deficiency, Notice of Tax Liability, Notice of Claim Denial, or Notice of Penalty Liability issued under the Illinois Income Tax Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Cigarette Tax Act, the Cigarette Use Tax Act, the Tobacco Products Tax Act of 1995, the Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax Act, the Motor Fuel Tax Law, the Automobile Renting Occupation and Use Tax Act, the Coin-Operated Amusement Device and Redemption Machine Tax Act, the Gas Revenue Tax Act, the Water Company Invested Capital Tax Act, the Telecommunications Excise Tax Act, the Telecommunications Infrastructure Maintenance Fee Act, the Public Utilities Revenue Act, the Electricity Excise Tax Law, the Aircraft Use Tax Law, the Watercraft Use Tax Law, the Gas Use Tax Law, or the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, or the Compassionate Use and Research of Entheogens Act. Jurisdiction of the Tax Tribunal is limited to Notices of Tax Liability, Notices of Deficiency, Notices of Claim Denial, and Notices of Penalty Liability where the amount at issue in a notice, or the aggregate amount at issue in multiple notices issued for the same tax year or audit period, exceeds $15,000, exclusive of penalties and interest. In notices solely asserting either an interest or penalty assessment, or both, the Tax Tribunal shall have jurisdiction over cases where the combined total of all penalties or interest assessed exceeds $15,000.

(b) Except as otherwise permitted by this Act and by the Constitution of the State of Illinois or otherwise by State law, including, but not limited to, the State Officers and Employees Money Disposition Act, no person shall contest any matter within the jurisdiction of the Tax Tribunal in any action, suit, or proceeding in the circuit court or any other court of the State. If a person attempts to do so, then such action, suit, or proceeding shall be dismissed without prejudice. The improper commencement of any action, suit, or proceeding does not extend the time period for commencing a proceeding in the Tax Tribunal.

(c) The Tax Tribunal may require the taxpayer to post a bond equal to 25% of the liability at issue (1) upon motion of the Department and a showing that (A) the taxpayer's action is frivolous or legally insufficient or (B) the taxpayer is acting primarily for the purpose of delaying the collection of tax or prejudicing the ability ultimately to collect the tax, or (2) if, at any time during the proceedings, it is determined by the Tax Tribunal that the taxpayer is not pursuing the resolution of the case with due diligence. If the Tax Tribunal finds in a particular case that the taxpayer cannot procure and furnish a satisfactory surety or sureties for the kind of bond required herein, the Tax Tribunal may relieve the taxpayer of the obligation of filing such bond, if, upon the timely application for a lien in lieu thereof and accompanying proof therein submitted, the Tax Tribunal is satisfied that any such lien imposed would operate to secure the assessment in the manner and to the degree as would a bond. The Tax Tribunal shall adopt rules for the procedures to be used in securing a bond or lien under this Section.

(d) If, with or after the filing of a timely petition, the taxpayer pays all or part of the tax or other amount in issue before the Tax Tribunal has rendered a decision, the Tax Tribunal shall treat the taxpayer's petition as a protest of a denial of claim for refund of the amount so paid upon a written motion filed by the taxpayer.

(e) The Tax Tribunal shall not have jurisdiction to review:

(1) any assessment made under the Property Tax Code;

(2) any decisions relating to the issuance or denial of an exemption ruling for any entity claiming exemption from any tax imposed under the Property Tax Code or any State tax administered by the Department;

(3) a notice of proposed tax liability, notice of proposed deficiency, or any other notice of proposed assessment or notice of intent to take some action;

(4) any action or determination of the Department regarding tax liabilities that have become finalized by law, including but not limited to the issuance of liens, levies, and revocations, suspensions, or denials of licenses or certificates of registration or any other collection activities;

(5) any proceedings of the Department's informal administrative appeals function; and

(6) any challenge to an administrative subpoena issued by the Department.

(f) The Tax Tribunal shall decide questions regarding the constitutionality of statutes and rules adopted by the Department as applied to the taxpayer, but shall not have the power to declare a statute or rule unconstitutional or otherwise invalid on its face. A taxpayer challenging the constitutionality of a statute or rule on its face may present such challenge to the Tax Tribunal for the sole purpose of making a record for review by the Illinois Appellate Court. Failure to raise a constitutional issue regarding the application of a statute or regulations to the taxpayer shall not preclude the taxpayer or the Department from raising those issues at the appellate court level.
