McConnaughay Reports on Budget

From State Senator Karen McConnaughay:

McConnaughay Budget 5-26-15Things happen quickly in the last week of the spring legislative session.

For months, we have been working to find solutions to the state’s most pressing issues, including:

  • sky-high highest property taxes;
  • a job-killing business climate; and
  • a state government with a reputation for failure, corruption, and disarray.Last week, I was proud to co-sponsor a legislative package containing the Governor’s turnaround agenda. 

    These major pieces of reform legislation freeze property taxes, improve Illinois’ jobs climate, and transform state government with term limits and redistricting reform.

    Instead of addressing these real, much-needed structural reforms for the biggest issues plaguing Illinois, the Democrats have punted these issues down the road and instead introduced yet another broken budget.

  • The difference is clear — Gov. Rauner and I are fighting for reforms that will create a stronger, more vibrant future for our children.
  • The Democrats are talking about the same kind of bloated budgets and tax hikes that will keep Illinois in the past.

    They aren’t giving you the credit you deserve. They think you’re willing to accept doubling down on a broken system that has failed you for the last dozen years. I’m tired of Springfield’s failures, and I know you are too.

    Let’s embrace the future instead of living in the past.

    Please contact me or my office with questions or concerns you may have, and make sure your voice is heard! You can also visit my legislative website at www.senatormcconnaughay.com.
