Progress Illinois: Budget Stalemate Means Things
The good folks over at Progress Illinois are doing yeoman's work: they are tracking just how the budget impasse in Springfield is in fact harming actual real people, not just abstract line items. They are mapping the programs and organizations impacted, and asking for your help in tracking just who is being hurt.

More incredulous information from GB...
Progress Illinois is funded by SEIU, which is closely affiliated with ACORN.
Anyone interested in the ethics of each organization should look into Wade Rathke's involvement in the embezlement of funds. They have little interest outside of enriching themselves.
