03282017CM0380SPRINGFIELD- State Senator Laura Murphy (D-Des Plaines) released the statement below after Gov. Rauner’s self-proclaimed “unity” speech at the Old State Capitol in Springfield.

“If Gov. Rauner had been at the Capitol last month instead of crafting his multi-million-dollar smear campaign, he may have noticed the Senate already passed a balanced budget that contained property tax reform, term limits for legislative leadership and many of the other reforms he has demanded. We took the necessary steps to provide stability and certainty to the state without him.

“Now, he’s called the legislature back to Springfield to the tune of $48,000 per day. It’s time for him to drop the political games and join us in supporting a balanced budget.”
