— Illinois takes first step toward a budget – GREG HINZ
http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20170706/NEWS02/170709952/illinois-takes-first-step-toward-a-budget
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois House has voted to override Gov. Bruce Rauner’s veto of a bill to raise the state’s income tax, the first and most difficult of a series of votes expected today to give the state its first budget in three years. The action came on a largely party-line vote 71 to 42, the bare number needed, with GOP lawmakers who broke from Rauner in passing the bill last week joining with all but a handful of Democrats to finalize the tax increase. Since the Senate already had voted for an override, the action means that, effective July 1, the individual income tax will rise from 3.75 percent to 4.95 percent and the corporate rate from 5.25 percent to 7 percent. The action also sets the stage for what is likely to be a no-holds-barred race for governor next year between Rauner, seeking a second term, and one of a half-dozen Democrats who are vying to take him on in the general election.

Even though it was almost always under hiring and/or promotion freezes, it was also under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to hire, to retain, and to promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who were minority, female, and/or younger. Consequently, the Democrats who ran GAO focused on wasting the careers of and getting rid of its employee who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)
