Lawmakers postpone Cook County property tax debt sale to continue working on reforms – Capitol News IL

Lawmakers voted to pass House Bill 598 Thursday, which would delay the annual Cook County property tax debt sale from March 10 to Dec. 1, 2026, and pause accruing interest on the debt. However, the delay leaves county treasurers open to a growing number of lawsuits that could put them on the hook for millions of dollars in damages.

Maybe if Cook County did spending cuts and stopped wasteful spending on illegals and other far left programs, we would not be in this mess. Stop guaranteed income and bowing to CTU. CTU not interested in teaching students, just power, money, and indoctrination of students.

Millions is a understatement, this might finally put the nail in to hold up the Bankruptcy sign for Chicago.
