Fahner: State Shouldn’t Pay GOP Remap Fees
Illinois should not have paid a 75300 dollar legal bill charged to the Republican Party in its court battle over congressional reapportionment. Attorney General Tyrone Fahner said state law does not authorize such expenditures, while House Speaker George Ryan argued the bill is justified since the GOP map was approved by a Republican-dominated House. Fahner’s opinion followed a query from Comptroller Roland Burris amid partisan dispute over who finances the fees.

Budget Director Robert Mandeville says Thompson must choose between cutting spending, raising taxes, or changing state tax law to offset the shortfall ahead of the March budget presentation. Senate leaders warn a tax rewrite could push firms to relocate.
