    Dennis, sorry to say but Illinois does not care about transparency.

    I am wondering if there is close tie to Mautino and House Speaker Madigan? Any
    bets?

    Good job to the representatives that have keep this serious matter on the front burner.

    Unfortunately HB-0415 is in Rule 19(a) status as of 3/31/17, which basically means it is now back to step 3, the Rules Committee, where it was on 1/12/17. If Illinois really expects to be “transparent” (whatever that really means these days) then all expenses must have supporting, original, documents, or they would not be paid.
