Legislators-Indicted? Governor Thompson in Shutdown Impasse

Springfield lawmakers accuse Gov. James Thompson of ignoring the General Assembly while surveying a split on road funding and gasoline tax. Clerks note Thompson confers with leadership but shows little drive to halt bills. The session winds down as party unity remains fragile, with Chicago power plays shaping education, transit, and tax plans.

Illinois House tightens state control of nursing homes

The Illinois House approved bills to strengthen state oversight of nursing and sheltered care facilities, creating a new resident rights class and allowing the Department of Public Health to set minimum standards, issue temporary licenses, and place on site monitors as needed. The package moves to the Senate, with other actions including pay raises for state’s attorneys and expanded adoption access. Teachers’ pensions advance to allow work until age 70, with final Senate action already completed.
