More Funding
The Chicago Tribune reports this morning that House Speaker Michael Madigan released the results of a survey of representatives that indicated that there was not support for a tax increase this year among legislators. This could be a blow to any hopes of receiving additional funds for schools. The interest now appears to have turned to another expansion of gambling. These issues will certainly be contentious as the various regions compete for additional gambling slots. Chicago is very interested in receiving a casino that could enhance its bid for an Olympic venue.
It seems very likely that the legislative session will not end on May 31st as scheduled. It will be a shame to squander this opportunity for additional funds for public education. We will continue to monitor the action in Springfield.
