Caulkins: Budget ‘shell game’ to cost state $1.5 billion, 22,000 jobs

DECATUR (Heartland Newsfeed) -- Dan Caulkins is increasingly concerned about a provision in the state’s 2018 fiscal year budget he fears could cause taxpayers as much as $1.5 billion. Beyond the massive costs, Caulkins, who recently launched his campaign against Rep. Bill Mitchell (R-Forsyth) in the 101st District, said in a release the plan that diverts $300 million annually from the Illinois road fund could cost the state over 22,000 jobs. Caulkins points the finger of blame squarely at House […]

Illinois officials react to FCC’s net neutrality vote

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- While Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan promises an appeal, an Illinois U.S. representative says lifting Federal net neutrality rules will hold internet service providers accountable by fostering more competition. The FCC voted to repeal net neutrality regulations Thursday 3 to 2. Madigan and other state AGs followed up with a promise to appeal. She said the move “undermines the public interest by putting our free and open internet at risk.” Thursday’s vote, Madigan’s office said in […]

Consumer advocate warns of holiday scam attempts

CHICAGO (Illinois News Network) -- The fast-paced shopping season that accompanies the holidays means more potential opportunities for criminals. That’s according to the Better Business Bureau, which is warning Illinois residents about the annual spike in scam attempts this time of the year. “I’ve been doing this for 30 years and there always seems to be an uptick, because it appears that many people are desperate this time of the year,” said Steve Bernas, president and CEO of Better Business […]

Macon County sees no change in state multiplier on property assessments

DECATUR (Heartland Newsfeed) -- The tentative state equalization factor for property assessments in Macon County remains unchanged from last year – 1.000. The county's property assessment equalization factor, commonly known as the multiplier, applies to 2017 taxes payable in 2018, Illinois Department of Revenue Director Constance Beard said in a release. The equalization factor is computed by comparing individual properties' sales prices over the recent three-year period with the assessed value of the properties as determined by the county, the […]

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. Mike Unes, R-East Peoria, said this summer. He and several other Republicans joined Democrats in overriding Gov. […]

Report: Markham mayor orders staff to give himself $70k raise with backpay

MARKHAM (Illinois News Network) -- Just months before a suburban Chicago mayor was indicted on bribery charges, his replacement reportedly gave himself a massive raise with back pay.

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. Billionaire J.B. Pritzker said in a campaign video he wants a new program called IllinoisCares. “We should be focused on expanding affordable healthcare, not eliminating it,” Pritzker said, criticizing the Trump administration and congressional Republicans’ attempts at dismantling the Affordable Care Act. “That’s why I have […]

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 […]
