    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.
  • 2016 Annual Report

    2016 Annual Report

    20 Celebrating 1996-2016 years 2016 annual report Message from the Chair The O’Hare Noise Compatibility Commission is 20 years strong and still committed to its original agreement with the City of Chicago “to mitigate O’Hare aircraft noise through sound insulation programs and technological advancements in the aircraft industry.” Its members took a leap of faith to work with the City of Chicago, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the airlines, and industry stakeholders. As a result, ONCC has become one of the most recognized and respected airport noise commissions throughout the world. Its achievements are tangible. • The Residential Sound Insulation Committee is completing its oversight duties for the remaining eligible homes identified by the FAA’s 2005 Record of Decision (ROD). More than $113 million of grant money has been allocated for this project. • Since 1982, approximately $350 million has been spent to sound insulate 124 schools in Chicago and suburban communities to ensure that students and educators have a quiet learning environment. That program was completed in 2016 under the guidelines set forth in the ROD. • Twenty years ago, the airlines operating at O’Hare agreed to abate nighttime noise through a voluntary program—Fly Quiet. The program encourages pilots and air traffic controllers to use designated preferential runways and flight tracks developed by the Chicago Department Aviation (CDA) and ONCC. Today, O’Hare’s modernization program has created both interim and permanent changes to the airport’s configuration. As a result, the burden of aircraft noise has shifted largely to communities east and west of the airport at all hours and necessitates a fresh look at the Fly Quiet program.

    November 18, 2020 Director Theresa Eagleson, HFS Prescott Bloom

    November 18, 2020 Director Theresa Eagleson, HFS Prescott Bloom Building 201 South Second Street Springfield, IL 62763 Dear Director Eagleson: As members of the House Republican Caucus, we are aware that you are working with the Medicaid Working Group to address issues related to healthcare disparities across the State of Illinois. It is also our understanding that you are currently discussing Hospital Transformation funding for the State. As Legislators, we represent areas across the entire State, including central and downstate Illinois. Our districts are challenged with not only access to healthcare but certainly access to hospital care. In many of our districts our constituents travel across several counties to receive hospital care. For our constituents it is not only an issue of specialty care but simply immediate care. We encounter severe medical deserts across the state, but especially in central and downstate Illinois. Poverty knows no boundaries in our state and certainly our districts suffer equally as other areas of the state. The USDA published a research article in May of this year. In that research they found that in 2018, all the extreme poverty counties were in rural America. The health care needs of the rural communities many of us represent can best be protected by ensuring Critical Access Hospitals receive sufficient and equitable access to Hospital Transformation funding. Workers in the agricultural and meat-packing industries, many of whom are Black and Brown, rely on Critical Access Hospitals as their primary source of care. Because access to care strongly correlates to an individual’s income level, we believe that maintaining an income-based formula in allocating Hospital Transformation funding will ensure that the unique health care needs of our constituents are met, while also ensuring an equitable and fair distribution of funding statewide.
