Audio and summary 
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.
In Chicago fire department vehicles falling apart due to lack of maintenance. Fire engines 20 yrs past their expected life span. A police department short by an estimated 3000 officers. How would the $200 million spent on illegal aliens help fixing these issues? How about the hundreds of millions, maybe a billion, that the state has wasted on supporting illegal aliens.

Apparently supporting illegal aliens who drain hard earned tax dollars from tax paying citizens is more important.
