Bailey fears state government won’t keep spending in check

SPRINGFIELD (Heartland Newsfeed) -- Newly sworn-in state Rep. Darren Bailey is fearing his suspicions about what would take place in Springfield are becoming reality. “This seems to send an early example of how Gov. Pritzker plans to spend us into oblivion,” Bailey, the Republican newcomer from Xenia, stated in regards to the passage of Senate Bill 3531 during the lame duck legislative session, which increases the annual salaries of state departmental workers, associate directors and secretaries by 15 percent. “Then […]

GUEST EDITORIAL: Pensions keep Illinois in fiscal turmoil

Goodbye to Illinois’ $130 billion pension hole. Now it’s $133 billion. And getting deeper. Sometimes the clearest warning about Illinois’ fiscal crisis can be communicated using numbers, sometimes with a well-chosen phrase. Here we present both, as reminders during the period before a new Democratic governor takes office with a Democratic mega-majority, that the state’s messes will only worsen. Until lawmakers take decisive action. First, the awful numbers: For several years we’ve cited the figure of $130 billion to represent Illinois’ […]

OP-ED: Two wrongs don’t make a right in ‘Fight for $15’ debate

The "Fight for $15" an hour is back in Illinois, although it's not likely to be much of a fight and this time there's a bit of a twist. Democratic Gov.-elect J.B. Pritzker is telling anyone who will listen that he wants to gradually raise the state's minimum wage to $15 an hour starting in the first six months of his term that begins in January. Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner vetoed the last legislative attempt to gradually raise the state's […]
