MOODY: Come on, Illinois Democrats — do something

I am a liberal progressive living in the state of Illinois whose legislative body is controlled by the Democratic Party. As a liberal progressive, I have an affinity for the Democrats who generally promote the values I believe in, however our state is in miserable financial shape and has been for a long time. Our bonds are rated just a tad above junk, which means that we have to pay an interest premium to borrow money. Vendors who do business […]

PHILLIPS: Consider Libertarian Kash Jackson over Rauner and Pritzker

Representative Jeanne Ives gave me hope that our state would still be saved. After decades of Democrat control of our state legislature, I wanted to see Rauner succeed, but all I got were betrayals. After primary night, it dawned on me that we're left with choosing Pritzker or Rauner. One billionaire or another. Fortunately, there is a third option -- Kash Jackson, the Libertarian candidate for Governor. I was skeptical at first, but then I researched him. Like Representative Ives, […]

HAMILTON: Congress tanks, but does it care?

We’re at a watershed moment in American political history. Our Congress — I’m talking about the people’s body, the institution created by our founders, and not just the men and women who currently inhabit it — is in deep trouble. And no one seems to be offering hope. Its public standing is abysmal, occasionally dropping into the single digits in polling. Very few people seem to respect it, even on Capitol Hill. Small surprise, as the Pew Research Center reported […]

SANFORD: Colleague supports Robbins for sheriff

In light of the upcoming election, I would like to submit this letter concerning a friend of mine, Rick Robbins, who is campaigning to be the next sheriff of Montgomery County. I have known Rick and have had the pleasure of working in law enforcement with him for approximately 25 years.  We both started our law enforcement careers at the Morrisonville Police Department.  In 1994, Rick was hired as a deputy sheriff at the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office.  I was […]

HILL: Woods handles issues with level head and determination

I am writing this letter to say that I am a proud supporter of Scott Woods for sheriff. I have the pleasure of knowing Scott as both a friend and co-worker.  Scott has wonderful values in life.  His faith and family are above the most important.  I have worked alongside Scott in many situations and found him to be able to handle any situation that is given him with a level head and determination to get the situation resolved. Scott […]

TOSETTI: Get our acts together, start managing the present

Are you concerned? I am. This has nothing to do with politics, as I am a true independent and have been for a long time, knowing that there are good people on both sides. Lately there seems to be a lot of discussion on the State of Illinois and more particularly, rural America, the small towns in it, the counties and the townships, and the struggles most of them are facing. Having been in business 40-plus years with offices in […]

Shrinking Decatur to face budgetary hurdles in coming year

DECATUR (Illinois Policy Institute) -- After passing an unbalanced budget in 2017, Decatur will have to address its declining population and revenue as it looks ahead to crafting future budgets. Gov. Bruce Rauner’s budget proposal for fiscal year 2019 continues a reduction to a state financial shell game. While ultimately a benefit for Illinois taxpayers, it’s a move that will force shrinking cities to reform local finances. As part of the fiscal year 2018 budget state lawmakers passed in July 2017, […]

Illinois teachers saw union dues flow to Chicago groups, politics and Madigan

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois Policy Institute) -- Government worker unions can use their members' dues in any number of ways. The most recent federal filings of one of Illinois' largest teachers unions reveal millions of dollars directed disproportionately to Chicago and to political causes with which their members may disagree. Illinois teachers may be surprised where their union dues go. Each year, unions such as the Illinois Federation of Teachers, or IFT, are required to file federal reporting documents that outline the […]
