(The Center Square) – In today’s edition of Illinois in Focus Daily, The Center Square Associate Editor Greg Bishop discusses Gov. J.B. Pritzker ending taxpayer subsidies for the health care of non-citizen adults while keeping the subsidies for non-citizen seniors and the warning from Republicans about the loss of federal funds if such policies continue.
Bishop also shares some of the latest on the issue of increasing taxes to pay for a mass transit fiscal cliff. Illinois House Speaker Chris Welch said they have time during October’s veto session to pass a bill to fund the cliff before the end of the year.
Finally, Bishop goes through recent Illinois Auditor General reports about the Illinois State Police’s handling of the Firearm Owner’s ID Card Act and the Concealed Carry Act. Read those audits here: Compliance audit summary; FOID Act follow up; CCL Act follow up.
