Governor Pat Quinn is taking his plea for cooperation on his suggestion for Pension and Medicaid Reform.
Quinn has launched a website aimed to educate the public on the State’s Medicaid and pension challenges. SaveOurState.Illinois.Gov has detailed about the governor’s proposed solutions and latest media reports on the issue, plus directing citizens with information that will allow them to contact their local legislators.
Quinn says his plan would save taxpayers up to 85 billion dollars, eliminate the unfunded liability over 30 years and allow public employees to continue to receive pension benefits.
