Gov. Bruce Rauner has launched a special cabinet to streamline education and issues regarding young people across Illinois.

Rauner visited Riverton Middle School, near Springfield, to sign an executive order to create the Governor's Cabinet on Children and Youth. He says the current efforts of state government are disjointed at best.

Rauner says the special cabinet won't bring added bureaucracy...

Rauner will serve as chair of the special cabinet. The cabinet has nearly 20 members, including the chiefs of state agencies like the Department of Children and Family Services and Department of Juvenile Justice.
