Illinois budget advances tax breaks and grants for 1999
The legislature sent Governor Edgar a budget including personal and corporate tax breaks, a circuit breaker expansion for seniors and disabled, 3 percent provider pay raises, and teacher pension changes. It also earmarks 180 million dollars for district projects, notably Prairie State College in Chicago Heights with a 17.9 million Health Education Center project.

Illinois lawmakers face pay hikes despite opposition
State officials salaries will rise July 1 after the General Assembly failed to block the increases. The House voted 92 19 to reject combined Democrat and Republican resolutions opposing the Illinois Compensation Review Board recommendations. Senate action varied, with most Republicans opposing and most Democrats supporting the raises. The plan affects governor, corrections chief, legislators, and judges, with a 2.9 percent cost of living adjustment in 1990 and salaries rising to levels through 1999.
