While not perfect, SB 6 ensured that the State of Illinois avoided junk bond status, state universities kept their doors open, and state and local government services continued to be delivered. In addition, SB 6 provided funding for a wage increase for direct support personnel working in community disability agencies – the first wage increase for these workers in almost 10 years. SB 6 passed both the House and the Senate only to be vetoed by the Governor. The Governor’s veto was overridden by both chambers and SB 6 became law. A Yes vote is considered a right vote. A No vote, a Present vote, or not voting is considered a wrong vote. House Override Motion – July 6, 2017/Senate Override Motion – July 4, 2017 SB 9 - Revenue Increase SB 9 raised the state income tax rate by 1.2% for individuals and 2.2% for corporations while closing several corporate tax loopholes and provides much needed revenue to ensure that quality public services be maintained and the State of Illinois’ credit rating avoided junk bond status. SB 9 passed both the House and the Senate only to be vetoed by the Governor. The Governor’s veto was overridden by both chambers and SB 9 became law. A Yes vote is considered a right vote. A No vote, a Present vote, or not voting is considered a wrong vote. House Override Motion – July 6, 2017/Senate Override Motion – July 4, 2017 SB 851 – Defunding Local Government and School District Services SB 851 would impose a 2 year property tax freeze for Cook County and the collar counties and allow all other Illinois counties to opt into the 2 year property tax freeze. If passed, SB 851 would reduce support for public education and local government services and likely result in layoffs for school district and local government employees.

A Yes vote is considered a wrong vote. House 3rd Reading – November 8, 2017 SB 16 – Pension Cuts SB 16 would have required Tier One employees in SERS and SURS to choose between receiving a delayed and diminished cost of living adjustment to their pensions or maintaining a compounded COLA but accept diminished future pension benefits by having their pensionable salary level frozen. SB 16 failed to get the required votes necessary for passage and is in the Senate Committee on Assignments. A No vote, a Present vote, or not voting is considered a right vote. A Yes vote is considered a wrong vote. Senate 3rd Reading – May 17, 2017 HB 3216– Privatization Safeguards for State Services HB 3216 would have provided basic safeguards to ensure that any future outsourcing of state services to third party vendors would serve the best interests of the state. Such safeguards included requiring measurable, significant and lasting cost savings, no diminishment in the quality or quantity of services, and a prohibition on moving Illinois jobs to other states or other countries. HB 3216 passed the House and the Senate but was vetoed by the Governor. HB 3216 failed to get the required votes necessary to override the Governor’s veto in the House. A Yes vote is considered a right vote. A No vote, a Present vote, or not voting vote is considered a wrong vote. House Override Motion – October 25, 2017/Senate 3rd Reading – May 25, 2017 SB 19 – Halt the Expansion of Privatization of Medical Services in the Department of Corrections SB 19 would have restricted the ability of the Illinois Departments of Corrections and Juvenile Justice to replace 322 state employees who currently provide medical and mental health services by bringing in private vendors to perform that work.
