As in the inaugural survey in 2008, the Institute asked Illinoisans about their quality of life and about ways to deal with the state’s crippling budget deficits—whether cutting government spending or enhancing revenues. We also asked their opinions on a number of political and electoral reform ideas that had been well publicized over the summer of 2009 by the Illinois Reform Commission, appointed by Gov.

Zeigel died May 8, 2006, at the age of 101 years old. Yet, the impression he left from his 34 years at Eastern, his 72 years with Rotary International and his friendly personality will not be easily forgotten. His wife, Frances E. Zeigel, died April 17, 2006. She was 102 years old. Zeigel died just three weeks later. June 1 would have been their 76th wedding anniversary. "For their wedding anniversary last year we were not able to find a 75th anniversary card from Hallmark, so I purchased a 50 year card and a 25 year card and taped them together. Dad got a real kick out of that," said son, Robert F. Zeigel. Zeigel came to Eastern in 1937, teaching education classes, and was the first to teach off- campus classes offered by the campus. His work with education would get him extra tire and gasoline rations during the war, according to son Robert. Because of his work with Eastern's Schoolmaster's Club, it enabled a guidance conference at Eastern to be arranged for high school juniors and seniors.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Health and Budgetary Costs of Tobacco Use in Illinois Tobacco-induced diseases cost $785 million in state Medicaid expenditures in 2005; over 1 percent of the state budget in the 2010s went to treating the health effects of tobacco. Tobacco Industry Influence Tobacco industry campaign contributions to elected officials in Illinois between 1995 and 2012 totaled at least $4.9 million. In every two-year election cycle between 1995-1996 and 2011-2012 the tobacco industry gave campaign contributions to most (58% to 88%) state legislators.
