Restoration work on Illinois landmark completed with private donations, $350,000 from state

OREGON, Ill. (The Center Square) -- Restoration work is complete on a northern Illinois landmark. The Eternal Indian statue at Lowden State Park near Oregon has spent most of the past five years under a plastic covering to protect it from the elements. Now a project to repair damaged concrete on the 109-year-old, 50-foot-tall structure has wrapped up. “Scaffolding is coming down, the tarp is off, and you can see the statue,” said Crystal Curfman, executive director of the Illinois Conservation […]

COMMENTARY: Political New Year’s resolutions for 2020

I wrote a Letter to the Editor which was sent out to roughly a dozen publications over the weekend, but only one took the time to publish it. I feel it was appropriate to share: As we enter a new year, a new decade and yet another election cycle, the ongoing question from fed-up voters keep ringing in my mind: “Why don’t we have other candidates running for office? These candidates on the ballot are awful!”   It’s an easy […]

Small business owners prepare for minimum wage hikes in Illinois

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) -- Small business owners around the state are preparing for two minimum wage hikes in 2020. The minimum wage for most employees in Illinois will increase to $9.25 on Jan. 1 and then will jump to $10 an hour in July. “Our members, especially those in downstate small communities, are very concerned because so many of them are the small cafes and restaurants, the small retailers who provide a lot of entry-level jobs for folks in […]

Illinois’ new parking tax takes effect Jan. 1; critics say it will cost jobs

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) -- To help generate $45 billion in new revenue for the Rebuild Illinois infrastructure plan, the state will start taxing parking businesses on Jan. 1. The tax will be 6 percent of the parking rate for hourly, daily or weekly parking. The tax rate will be 9 percent on monthly or yearly parking spaces. The new monthly revenue will then be used to pay for general expenses with the infrastructure plan. Because the tax doesn’t qualify […]

COMMENTARY: Elections limited to two-party system is unhealthy

Uncontested elections are even worse Petitioning recently ended for the members of the political duopoly for their upcoming primary election in Illinois taking place on March 17, 2020. Only in two counties was a political party that was neither Democrat nor Republican allowed to slate candidates for their own partisan primary. Libertarians in McLean and Kankakee counties recently filed their petitions for their own party primary. It's bad enough when your choices are often limited to Democrat or Republican, but […]

Skillicorn, GOP colleagues call for special legislative session to tackle ethics reform

SPRINGFIELD (Heartland Newsfeed) -- Several members of the Republican caucus are calling for a special session in order to bring ethics reform to the General Assembly, but it doesn't seem likely it will happen this month. State Rep. Allen Skillicorn (R-Crystal Lake) recently called for a special session on Twitter, citing that "ending the culture of corruption" is key and "is not rocket science." Skillicorn and four other colleagues -- Brad Halbrook (R-Shelbyville), Blaine Wilhour (R-Beecher City), Chris Miller (R-Oakland) […]

How is the state of Illinois handling the student loan debt crisis?

Student debt is a nationwide plague, with many of us still attempting to pay off loans that have racked up. The problem of student loans is so bad that it informs much of today’s presidential platforms. That being said, the fact of the matter is that much of these debates are still precisely that—debates. While the government tries to figure out how to lessen student loans (or remove them altogether), many of us still have to pay them off. Where […]
