    The anatomy of influence: Government unions in Illinois David Giuliani | Government reform analyst Chris Andriesen | Project manager Illinois Policy Institute TABLE OF CONTENTS Overall union membership Employment and union membership in Illinois 6 Overall employment, public sector vs. private sector 8 Union profiles Illinois Education Association 10 Illinois Federation of Teachers 12 American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31 14 Service Employees International Union 16 Union spending Partisan breakdown 20 Largest beneficiaries 22 99th General Assembly 29 ILLINOISPOLICY.ORG | 3 INTRODUCTION In 24 states, employees of a unionized workplace can decide for themselves whether they want to join and financially support a union. In Wisconsin, this choice is extended to employees of state government. But not in Illinois; almost all government workers – including teachers, police officers and those who serve in state government – are required to pay money to a union to keep their jobs. Because of this, government unions in Illinois have long been powerful in state politics, with the major government unions donating tens of millions of dollars to political campaigns. Since 2002, Illinois’ five major government unions have spent more than $46 million on direct political contributions alone. “The anatomy of influence: Government unions in Illinois” takes a close look at unions’ political spending and the influence afforded to government unions as a result. This analysis offers an unprecedented review of the political donations to the current Illinois General Assembly, as well as top recipients of union political giving since 2002. It also highlights how profitable the business of forced unionization can be for those who run the unions by listing a sampling of the highest-compensated employees for the state’s major government unions: the Illinois Education Association; Illinois Federation of Teachers; American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31; and Service Employees International Union.

  • Weekly Legislative Report ILLINOIS COMMUNITY COLLEGE TRUSTEES ASSOCIATION By: Jessica Nardulli & Tom Ryder March 9-10, 2018
    Weekly Legislative Report ILLINOIS COMMUNITY COLLEGE TRUSTEES ASSOCIATION By: Jessica Nardulli & Tom Ryder March 9-10, 2018 The Governor delivered his Budget Address on February 14. Of primary importance to ICCTA members, he called for shifting the cost of pensions for teachers and university/college employees away from the state. He also proposed eliminating state funding for the Teachers’ Retirement Insurance Program (TRIP) and College Insurance Program (CIP). The response to the Governor’s proposal was cool, but the budget presented will serve as a discussion point for the coming legislative session and elections. The deadline to introduce new legislation this spring has passed. The House filed a total of 5,820 bills and the Senate filed 3,579 bills. Many of those are from last year, but they are still available for consideration this year. For the most part, the cards have been dealt and we have the hand we will be playing with for this session – meaning we have a good sense for the issues the General Assembly will consider in 2018. However, things can quickly change with an amendment. We will be watching amendments very closely. Session has started off very slow, as members are increasingly focused on the March 20 primary elections. If they don’t have a race of their own, they are helping colleagues in competitive races. Members have until April 13 to move the mounds of bills they have introduced out of committee.

  • Fur Coats, Resort Vacations and a Porsche: Lawmaker Resigns After Allegedly Taking $500,000 from Her Charity
    Fur coats, resort vacations and a Porsche: Lawmaker resigns after allegedly taking $500,000 from her charity The nonprofit founded by a Pennsylvania lawmaker was meant to help some of the neediest people in West Philadelphia, caring for and housing those struggling with addiction, poverty and mental illness. Yet over the past decade, officials say, state Rep. Movita Johnson-Harrell (D) used more than $500,000 from the charity’s bank accounts to pay off a Porsche, multiple fur coats and pricey vacations to Mexico — not to mention, funding her two campaigns for a state seat representing a Philadelphia district. Although the Democrat disputed some of those charges, she also submitted her resignation ​ Thursday to step down from office, and officials said she is planning to plead guilty to some ​ ​ ​ charges, which include theft, perjury and related crimes. “Her theft knew no bounds,” Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro said. “No one is above ​ ​ the law, no matter their position of power. And today is no different.” Johnson-Harrell, 53, is the 60th public official in Pennsylvania to have been arrested by ​ ​ Shapiro’s office since 2017. But the eye-popping allegations against her stand out. Prosecutors say the lawmaker used her charity as a “cash account,” drawing in some cases from her clients’ government benefits, and covered it up by lying on her personal financial records or those of her nonprofit and campaign. “I vigorously dispute many of these allegations, which generally pertain to before I took office,” she said in a statement to the Associated Press, “and I intend to accept responsibility for any ​ ​ actions that were inappropriate.” A lawyer for Johnson-Harrell did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Washington Post.
