Starting in June, a minor will no longer need to tell their parent before getting an abortion in Illinois.

"We recently repealed the Parental Notice of Abortion law here in Illinois," ACLU Illinois Director of Women and Reproductive Rights Project Ameria Klafeta said. "The legislature took that law off the books, effective June 1st."

Back in December, Gov. JB Pritzker repealed the Parental Notice of Abortion Act which did away with requiring a healthcare provider to notify an adult family member at least 48 hours before a minor was going to have an abortion.
