Can't please anybody around here. As a voter, I like the idea of having more data about the consequences of my vote on the tax amendment, regardless of the motives.
A quick reminder that our last governor literally
blocked his agency heads from suggesting any budget cuts.

Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner said Tuesday that Senate Democrats must make "real spending cuts" in their proposed budget compromise, just hours before his agency directors refused to offer suggestions for reductions when asked by Senate committees.

Rauner's office would not comment on why the cabinet members were not allowed to speak.

Which is more fiscally responsible, proposing a tax increase and spelling out the cuts that will happen without it
OR calling for "real spending cuts", while blocking people from actually proposing any cuts?
