Sen. Rose: Proposed Budget Bipartisan Bill

A budget proposed by Illinois Republicans in the General Assembly Wednesday will bring significant cuts and changes to the Illinois budget.
 
That is the message from State Senator Chapin Rose who applauds the bills that are being endorsed by Governor Bruce Rauner. He says it brings a little bit of everything from each side of the isle.
 
 
Sen. Rose anticipates the Governor getting behind the bill Thursday. He says initially there was agitative feelings about the proposal but notes as the day went on, more Democrats began to get behind the proposal.
 
 
Governor Rauner called lawmakers back to Springfield next week for a special session. Rose issued a statement late Thursday saying quote - "I completely support the decision to go back to Springfield and when we do the House Democrats need to step up to the plate – everyone else has!”
