Halvorson pushes reform in campaign finance
Debbie DeFrancesco Halvorson Democratic candidate in Illinois 40th Senate District presses for strict campaign finance limits at a Chicago park district event. She calls costs rising and PAC funding expanding, proposing annual individual caps of 1000 and PAC caps of 3000, plus bans on funds from firms with state contracts. DeAngelis argues reforms failed before and urges broad, equal limits. Halvorson cites misused public trust and hopes a new Senate leadership will back changes.

Ford Heights officers were exonerated by the Illinois State Police after an inquiry into the death of Richard Will, who was beaten and set on fire in 1995 after a traffic stop. State officials criticized the village police for poor judgment while the officers defended their actions, saying they were not responsible for Will’s death.
