Earlier this week, Governor Bruce Rauner said lawmakers are holding school reforms hostage to get what Mike Madigan wants, a bailout of Chicago Public Schools.
Thursday on Regional Radio News, State Senator Chapin Rose echoed those comments and says he believes it is lawmakers intentions to create "a chaos like atmosphere" by not sending the school reform bill to the Senate.
Sen. Rose calls it a discriminatory bill and while there are some benefits in it for downstate schools, he feels it gives preference to students in Chicago over the rest of the state.
The Governor has said he will use his amendatory veto to give the best plan to the students of Illinois and the taxpayers.
