Illinois lawmaker calls clawback in COVID-19 grant program ‘abuse of power’

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) – The first public hearing of the Restore Illinois Collaborative Commission focused on grants of federal dollars the Pritzker administration is administering to businesses. But one aspect of the program was labeled “abuse of power” by a commission member.

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.

101st House District run based on people, not pay, candidate says

DECATUR (Heartland Newsfeed) -- Dan Caulkins says his willingness to represent the residents of Illinois' 101st House District without getting paid for it has hit a resounding note with people. “The fact that I won’t be taking a salary or benefits and that I’m not looking for a career means something to these voters,” Caulkins said in a recent interview. “I tell them I’m going to Springfield to be your voice. I’m not going to just be another employee of […]
