Illinois to issue February food stamp benefits this week

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- Those on food stamps in Illinois should get next month's benefits by the end of the week, but leaders in Springfield are warning people to make them last. The Federal government is releasing February's food stamp benefits, officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition and Assistance Program (SNAP), early. The partial Federal government shutdown will leave the United States Department of Agriculture without the authority to spend money next month. In Illinois, Department Of Human Services […]

Illinois congressional delegation to shrink after 2020 Census

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- Continued population loss means Illinois will have to say goodbye to one at least one of its 18 congressional representatives after the 2020 Census. Election Data Services recently released its annual projections of which states will gain and lose U.S. Representatives at the next turn of the decade. The projections show Illinois’ 18th Representative will almost certainly be removed and given to another state, said Kimball Brace. Other states projected to lose seats include Alabama, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, […]

Continued out-migration from Illinois could mean dire consequences

DECATUR (Heartland Newsfeed) -- When it comes to Illinois' shrinking population, the numbers reported don't tell the full story.

OP-ED: Holiday shopping and the sales tax Scrooge

The average American will spend around $800 on gifts this Christmas. But making those holiday buys in Illinois will leave many families wishing they could get more bang for their buck. Illinois passed its first state sales tax – 2 percent on all retail goods – all the way back in 1933. It not only replaced revenue that came from the old statewide property tax, but brought in a lot of new money as well. Fast forward to today: Illinois’ […]

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 […]
