(SPRINGFIELD) In news yesterday from the State Capitol : State lawmakers that represent the LaSalle Veterans’ Home are looking for audits and other measures to address last year’s COVID-19 outbreak. One measure would require onsite visits from state health officials as soon as practical : The House Energy and Environment Committee met virtually yesterday afternoon and began to look into creating a task force to look into carbon capture. A bill has been introduced to provide a report about the experimental practice by the end of the year and create an act to regulate carbon storage that would require a permit for the practice : and personal information, such as names and medical details, of nearly 9,000 Illinois families was sent by the state to the wrong mailing addresses in November and December last year. The Illinois Department of Central Management Services said last week it is working to ensure the error does not happen again.
