Quinn budget cuts sign plan amid delayed education funding
Illinois Governor Quinn signed a 32.9 billion spending plan after limiting state reductions, with 3.3 percent cuts to general education funding and 2 percent wage raises for union workers. The plan leaves regional education offices operating while legislators decide on restoring cuts, and faces an unpaid-bills backlog across schools and universities.
