Governor Bruce Rauner says it’s time for lawmakers to either pass his turnaround budget agenda or a tax hike. Governor Rauner is reintroducing his reform bills, including term limits, a freeze on property taxes and worker’s compensation reform. He’s calling on the legislature to take some action and end the budget stalemate.
The Governor says it’s irresponsible for lawmakers to pass him full or one month budgets that aren’t balanced.
