  • 2020 Illinois General Election Results
    2020 Illinois General Election Results DISCLAIMER: All noted races below have not been certified by the Illinois State Board of Elections and are subject to change. With the massive upswing of mail-in-voting this year, it is HIGHLY likely that many races will not be final until all ballots are in. In Illinois, ballots that are post-marked for Election Day have 2 weeks from Election Day to arrive and be counted. As a result, many of the close races noted below could change and we have marked some races as too close to call. The University of Illinois System Office of Governmental Relations will keep you updated as the Illinois State Board of Elections updates these races. Note, the State board of Elections has listed December 4th as its date to certify the vote and publish official results. GRADUATED INCOME TAX AMENDMENT The constitutional amendment allowing the State of Illinois to implement a Graduated Income Tax failed at the ballot box with a vote of roughly 45% in favor and 55% opposed. The constitutional amendment needed a simple majority of all voters in the election to pass it or 60% of people who specifically voted on the amendment. The FY 21 budget negotiated on and passed in May was balanced, in part, on the projected revenues from the new graduated income tax. The consequences of this could be severe for higher education funding, as Gov. Pritzker has noted that there will need to be major cuts to public safety, education and human services in order to close the budget gap.

  • ICCTA Government Relations and Public Policy Report by Jessica Nardulli, ICCTA Legislative Counsel January 25, 2021
    ICCTA Government Relations and Public Policy Report By Jessica Nardulli, ICCTA Legislative Counsel January 25, 2021 New Leadership in the Illinois House State Rep. Emanuel “Chris” Welch, the new speaker of the Illinois House of Representatives, has promised to make some changes to the way the Speaker’s office operates. For one, Welch is adept at using social media and has committed to modernizing the office. He has also committed to ethics reforms and supports a law limiting leader terms to 10 years. One of the biggest areas for change is the upcoming legislative and congressional district reapportionment. Under former Speaker Michael Madigan, the process was partisan and handled behind closed doors. Governor JB Pritzker has promised not to sign an “unfair” map. Welch has been a supporter of “fair” maps in the past but acknowledged that his version of “fair” might not be the same as others. Welch’s first order of business is to announce the rules of the Illinois House. Welch has made it clear he wants more of a collaborative approach by conferring with his colleagues on both sides of the aisle. He also promised a leadership team that will show the state’s diversity of gender, race, and geography. Welch’s leadership team includes: • State Rep. Greg Harris - Majority Leader • State Rep. Jehan Gordon-Booth - Deputy Majority Leader / Speaker Pro-Tempore • State Rep. Mary E. Flowers - Deputy Majority Leader and Dean of the Caucus • State Rep. Jaime M. Andrade, Jr. - Assistant Majority Leader • State Rep. Robyn Gabel - Assistant Majority Leader • State Rep. Elizabeth Hernandez - Assistant Majority Leader • State Rep.

The event offered 18 students from Southern Illinois University Carbondale the opportunity to visit the Illinois Statehouse to meet House and Senate lawmakers including members of the Illinois Legislative Latino Caucus and representatives from various branches of state government to learn about internship opportunities at the Capitol. “It was a terrific experience for our students,” said Vincent Sadowski, a social work graduate intern at the Institute who helped organize the day’s activities. "Seeing first-hand the way the students were inspired by the visit made all the hard work that went into planning the event very worthwhile. The feedback we received from our group was overwhelmingly positive and after spending many hours at the Capitol, they still wanted to stay even longer to meet with lawmakers." Students had the opportunity for question and answer sessions with Senator Iris Martinez of Chicago (Majority Caucus Whip), Senator Martin Sandoval of Chicago (Legislative Latino Caucus Co-Chair), Senator Omar Aquino of Chicago, Representative Elizabeth Hernandez of Cicero, Representative Cynthia Soto of Chicago, Representative Linda Chapa LaVia of Aurora, Representative Will Davis of Homewood, Representative Fred Crespo of Hoffman Estates (Legislative Latino Caucus Co-Chair), Representative Art Turner, Jr. of Chicago, and Representative Sara Wojcicki Jimenez of Leland Grove. The students also met and were publicly recognized from the Senate floor by Senator Paul Schimpf of Waterloo and by Representative Terri Bryant of Murphysboro from the House floor.
