Commentary: 6,745 reasons to be thankful Illinois state lawmakers fail to do more – Center Square

Brad Weisenstein, of the Illinois Policy Institute: "They introduced 6,745 bills during the legislative session that ran from January until May 31. Of those, 3,859 clever lawmaker ideas came with costs because they changed how the state operates. Those taxpayer liabilities were all but unknown because lawmakers only bothered to ask for the price tags on 10 of those bills."
