A central Illinois lawmaker is disappointed by what is not happening in Springfield this week as opposed to what is happening.

Education and law enforcement reform have many concerned in Illinois but State Senator Chapin Rose says there are issues not being brought up in Illinois that he is disappointed are being swept under the rug.

According to Sen. Rose, the focus on education and law enforcement reform is out of control and he says this is typical of a lame-duck session in Illinois.

Lawmakers are considering a police reform bill that has many in law enforcement speaking out about the negative impacts it could have on local communities.
