Illinois drains rainy day fund amid budget stalemate
Illinois faces a second year without a full budget as a stopgap plan drains the rainy day fund from about 180 million toward zero. The $275 million account funds state operations and services in a 16 month budget gap, with experts warning deeper cuts or higher taxes when a recession hits. Governor Rauner seeks a real rainy day fund but budget talks remain deadlocked with lawmakers. The unpaid bills backlog stands at 7.5 billion as stopgap measures aim to keep state services running through the election.
