The Illinois House Transportation Committee will hear a resolution Tuesday, March 22 asking IDOT to develop I-80 bridge plans that include the Bison Bridge project.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill.- House Republicans continue to call on the Pritzker administration to implement policy changes in Illinois’ veterans’ homes after the deadly COVID-19 outbreak at the LaSalle facility.
Republicans claim there’s been “no action” to ensure veterans’ safety going forward following last Tuesday’s hearing. Rep. David Welter (R-Morris) explained while the hearing went over four hours long, lawmakers weren’t able to ask important questions to make the necessary changes.
“I have several more questions for the Deputy Governor and, unfortunately, I didn’t have that opportunity in the committee,” said Welter. “I’m hoping there will be another one scheduled where we will be able to ask the follow-up questions. But depending on how the Deputy Governor answers those, I’m really finding a lot of issues with her recollection of events.”
