A Central Illinois lawmaker, who is mulling a decision to run for Governor, says Illinois' new state budget is "fatally flawed."

The budget, which passed on June 1, was initially set to take effect next summer. However, some mistakes in the legislation led to a Senate vote to correct the errors. According to State Sen. Jason Barickman, the legislation was a disaster from the beginning.

The Bloomington Republican added that when Gov. Pritzker corrected the legislation; he could have scaled back a bill that provides politicians with an 18-hundred dollar a year pay raise.

The House must also accept the changes. The state's new fiscal year begins July 1.
