Six members of the House challenged the Madigan opponents to come together for “unity” in a letter that was leaked to WBEZ. Why push for continued Madigan leadership when he’s under so much heat? In large part because they want and need his expertise during the redrawing of legislative maps in 2021, which will allow them easy reelection prospects and continued one-party control in Springfield. Madigan knows how to draw highly partisan maps that protect the status quo. He has blocked every effort from Illinois citizens to take the process out of the hands of politicians. The six trying to keep “outside forces” from meddling in “our leadership election” from the leaked letter are: House Democrats Fran Hurley, Justin Slaughter, John D’Amico and Nick Smith of Chicago; Mike Halpin of Rock Island; and Michael Zalewski of Riverside, whose own father has become embroiled in the ComEd investigation. Maybe Zalewski should sit this one out?

COVID-19-related revenue shortfalls blamed partly for millions in cuts

Gov. JB Pritzker on Tuesday said he will make more than $700 million in state budget cuts this fiscal year including a hiring freeze, grant reductions and “operational savings” as a first step to address a $3.9 billion projected revenue shortfall related in part to the COVID-19 pandemic. Pritzker said the plan is the result of a “months-long and ongoing review” of state agency spending that he can alter with his executive powers. He said the General Assembly will need to get involved, beginning with the session scheduled to begin in January, to further address both COVID-19-related revenue losses and shortfalls that are “structural” and were made worse under his predecessor, Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner.
