In spite of tax hike, ratings agency eyes change that could junk Illinois

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- Illinois could be on the fast track to a junk credit rating, despite lawmakers assuring that a tax hike in July would keep the state from the infamous designation. “If we don’t get this done we will become the first state in the history of the United States of America to be in junk bond status,” state Rep.

Experts: Democratic candidates for governor float unworkable, expensive healthcare ideas

CHICAGO (Illinois News Network) -- Several Democratic candidates for Illinois governor are floating ideas they say will improve Illinois’ healthcare outcomes, but critics of the various plans say the ideas are unworkable and expensive.

Flu season has arrived in force in some Illinois communities

LITCHFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- Illinois is not escaping the flu outbreak that has swept across parts of the country. The Illinois Department of Public Health does not track flu cases, just the number of people who are hospitalized. So it's up to local public health departments to paint the picture of Illinois' early flu season, and the picture isn't pretty. Litchfield schools, in Montgomery County, canceled classes last week because so many students and teachers were out sick. Montgomery County Public […]
