Illinois Chamber of Commerce recently issued the following announcement.
A bill moving through the Illinois legislature would prevent state and local agencies from weakening federal environmental and labor safeguards that were in place as of Jan. 1, 2017 – about three weeks before President Donald Trump took office.
Passed Wednesday in the Illinois Senate, the 32-21 vote in favor of the Illinois Baseline Protection Act was almost entirely along party lines: No Republicans voted in favor of the bill, while one Democrat – William Haine of Alton – voted against it.
