An IDES spokesperson offered this statement: “...The federal guidance does require states to review each overpayment on a case-by-case basis, and IDES is committed to doing this in a way that provides the least amount of disruption for claimants seeking a waiver. Please keep in mind the haphazard way in which the Trump administration rolled-out the PUA program resulted in states being required to verify all claimants’ wages after some payments were received, resulting in the issuance of overpayments.”
Of course not the taxpayers will be on the hook, come on there’s no freebies.

So the buffoonery at IDES, which continues to this day, is caused by the Trump administration? Is it any wonder that almost no one believes the dribble that comes out of the Pritzker lackeys. I suppose Trump is also responsible for the IDS phone system being a disaster, the offices being closed for months on end, and no response whatsoever to any written communications. Illinois will just keep sinking faster and faster into oblivion as long as we accept such blatant CYAing.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
