Thompson urges管理 to cut paperwork and save state money

Gov. James R. Thompson told department chiefs at the Executive Mansion to implement nearly 700 cost control measures from a task force and to submit a new standard form for every idea to cut costs. The Forms Management Center was created to consolidate and cut forms as Hastens sets deadlines for interagency implementation.

Thompson funds signatures for Illinois tax lid petition drive

Governor James R. Thompson pays petition circulators $100 for every 750 signatures, a tactic drawing criticism from opponent groups. Thompson defends the plan as a way to reach more voters, while supporters say signatures are still primarily collected by volunteers. Both petition drives target 625,000 signatures for November ballot questions on tax limits and spending.

ABA convention ends and adopts new policies

The American Bar Association wrapped up a week-long convention marking its 100th birthday with policy actions that could shape justice. The House of Delegates lifted the ban on lawyer television advertising, urged courts to address family violence in new ways, set liberal court coverage guidelines, and backed continued affirmative action efforts. It urged government funding for welfare abortions but rejected extending the ERA deadline or boycotting non-ERA states.
