Take Action!

As Illinois citizens who are concerned about our state's future, we understand that substantial budget reforms must be made now to prevent fiscal implosion. The answer to this crisis lies in common sense reforms of the pensions and retiree health care plans of the state's public employees, reasonable reductions in other areas of the state's budget and a multi-year plan to balance the budget.
