If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.

I can go to any outlying Cook County Court house and watch cheaters pull up in their Audi or Benz and send their wives and children to the WIC office for the free medical. SNAP cheats are moderately less offensive because it involves feeding people.

Adding these two issues together shows that cuts to snap are currently a definite need.
