The regulatory powers of the State of Illinois may be exercised in the area, but not in such a manner as to interfere with federal functions. Persons residing on the area under concurrent legislative jurisdiction are ensured important rights and privileges of citizenship, such as the right to vote and access to the Illinois courts. (c) Subject to subsection (b), the State of Illinois accepts cession of concurrent legislative jurisdiction from the United States. (d) The Governor of the State of Illinois is authorized to accept the retrocession of concurrent legislative jurisdiction over the subject lands by filing a notice of acceptance with the Illinois Secretary of State. (e) Upon transfer by deed of the subject lands, or any portion thereof, by the United States of America, the concurrent jurisdiction retained by the United States shall expire as to the particular property transferred.
