Toll bill hits a pothole in Illinois tollway debate
The Illinois House fell one vote short of approving a Democrat sponsored measure to require General Assembly approval for the Toll Highway Authority. Speaker Madigan defended the panel while Republicans warned of budget manipulation affecting I 355 extension funding and opposed shifting authority oversight. The bill faces Senate resistance as Gov Edgar proposed reclassifying the authority and adding oversight, with legal fights over annual operating budgets ongoing.
