Illinois House Republicans are rolling out their legislative agenda called “Reimagine Illinois.” House Republican lawmakers have introduced about 80 bills dealing with several issues. State Representative Blaine Wilhour is taking on the responsibility of tackling the “Ending the culture of corruption” component of the plan.
And, Representative Wilhour says they have to re-establish trust in lawmakers and in Springfield.
Specific bills in the overall plan include a “Back the Badge Program” to recruit and train police officers, reform the state’s FOID card system, giving lawmakers more time to look over budget proposals before they are passed and establishing an apprenticeship education program. The four components of the plan are—
- Ending the Culture of Corruption
- Responsible Fiscal Leadership
- Growing Jobs and Opportunities for our Families
- Ensuring Public Safety
