A lobbyist labeled the school aid forum a Christmas tree bill after the House added most amendments, with the Senate Education Committee approving the measure as it moved from House to Senate. The ornaments referenced are the amendments hung on the bill during the process.
House Cities and Villages Committee delayed two state aid bills to finance civic centers in Madison County and six other Downstate communities. Downstate lawmakers accuse Chicago of seeking a share of the action while Sen. Vadalabene and Rep. Flinn dispute locations in the Metro-East area. The bills seek 75 million for centers in Edwardsville, Madison County, Springfield, Peoria, Rockford, Aurora, Decatur, and Danville amid broader school aid provisions and potential tax rate changes.
