"While it is unfortunate that it required the tragic events that occurred at Burr Oak Cemetery to bring to light the serious lack of regulation in the death care industry, we must seize this opportunity to finally bring much-needed oversight for which I have been fighting for many years," Hynes said. "I appreciate that the task force is recommending many of the reforms that I've long advocated. The task force has put forth some new proposals which I intend to carefully review in the coming days. I look forward to working with the task force members in the upcoming veto session of the General Assembly to finally bring about additional consumer protections and strong oversight of the death care industry in Illinois. We owe it to the memory of those buried at Burr Oak and their loved ones to see this through to the very end."
