A new report ranks Illinois 46 out of 50 states for financial transparency, partly due to the state’s slow fiscal reporting.
Truth in Accounting’s Financial Transparency Score 2026 report evaluates how effectively each state discloses its true financial condition through audited reports.
Truth in Accounting founder & CEO Sheila Weinberg said Illinois taxpayers are not given information on a timely basis.
Weinberg said Illinois improved from a disclaimer opinion to a qualified opinion.
Weinberg also said the information Illinois provided is not completely accurate.
