Rauner Asking Agencies To Make Cuts

State agencies are gearing up for a round cuts.  Governor-Elect Bruce Rauner is asking the agencies to slash 20-percent from their budgets.  He's hoping to get a better understanding of what things will look like once the income-tax rate rolls back, in January.  The state will lose billions-of-dollars in revenues when that happens.  Rauner's team says he's asking for the cuts so he can prepare a responsible budget when he takes over as governor.
