“Illinois did not end up with the nation’s worst pension debt by being honest about its budgets” – Ted on WTAD

Ted explained to Quaid of WTAD why Gov. Pritzker’s claim of a “balanced” 2020 budget is bunk. Lawmakers are only contributing what they want, not what the state’s actuaries say is the responsible amount.

“Illinois did not end up with the nation’s worst pension debt by being honest about its budgets. It did not end up with the nation’s worst credit rating by being honest about its debts” said Ted.

Interview starts at 8:20.
