As downstate legislators of different political parties, we were proud to work together on […]

Illinois Policy Institute: Moody’s warns delay of state funding for Illinois schools a ‘credit negative’

SPRINGFIELD/CHICAGO (Illinois Policy Institute) -- State lawmakers keep giving ratings agencies reasons to downgrade Illinois government: pension crises, years of bad budgets and a two-year budget impasse are just a few examples. All have caused the credit ratings of various Illinois governments – from cities to universities to the state itself – to collapse. Many are now junk-rated and the state is just one notch away from junk itself. Now the ratings agencies have yet another reason to downgrade some […]

New Hampshire state representative Brandon Phinney: Why I switched parties

When I was campaigning for public office, I spoke to many of my constituents about current state issues. I talked about the need for fiscal conservatism, the need for a state budget that is balanced and sensible and I also discussed the role of government in our lives.

As someone who has lived their entire life in Central Illinois, I have seen all the goings on of our state government, or, more accurately, lack thereof. I’ve witnessed two consecutive state governors thrown in jail on various […]
