Illinois Senate President Don Harmon to the Illinois Congressional Delegation, requesting $41.6 billion plus, for various purposes including $10 billion for state pensions and $9.6 billion in aid to municipalities, for their pension funding.
And one guy asking doesn't mean he'll get it... nor do I think it should be funded by the feds . but this is the rights rally CRY and to even for turtle boy to inject we'll its a blue state , shows how ufit he is to serve in congress seeing his own governor is Democrat

2018 27.3
2017 37.6
2016 34.2
2015 36 these numbers are in billions and are profits
Farm profitability, at $88 billion for 2019, up $4 billion from 2018 and up $10 billion from 2017
The improvement in net farm income is primarily driven by an increase in federal support,
let me guess you have no issues with Mcconnell Trying to push through Tort reform rather than a clean bill

You said the GOP made up the notion that poorly run states wanted pension bailouts. You said only the GOP was talking about pensions. I proved you were irrefutably wrong. But you can't admit it.
"one guy asking doesn't mean he'll get it'
You're right, he's not going to get it with the GOP controlling the senate. Nor should he.
Sorry, it was $20B, not 40.
"we'll its a blue state "
Most of them are blue states. I don't need to hide from that fact. You do.
"you have no issues with Mcconnell Trying to push through Tort reform"
We desperately, desperately, desperately need tort reform, and that is applicable to the virus, as there will be class action suits everywhere. Every large nursing home and hospital in the country will be the subject of nuisance lawsuits. Avoiding nuisance lawsuits is a big reason why hospitals don't have more ventilators (ventilation is an extreme, invasive procedure that is a magnet for lawsuits). I know about this, as my department provides professional liability insurance to hospitals, and we always try to avoid insuring hospitals that have a lot of ventilators. Lawyers make it an impossible service to be able to provide to patients who need it. That needs to be fixed.
