Burris outlines re engineering Illinois bid for governor
Illinois attorney general Roland Burris frames a plan to overhaul state government and fund education without tax hikes. He criticizes Gov. Jim Edgar for vetoing the AG budget and halting Medicaid payments, pledging accountability, a $1.5 billion education increase over six years, and base funding per pupil. He supports tax increases only as a last resort and proposes town meetings to gauge citizen priorities while trimming ineffective programs.
