The idea for raising salaries of top Illinois state government officials, which culminated this weekend with the House and Senate voting lawmakers an 18% pay hike, began with Gov. J.B. Pritzker. But the Democratic governor said he originally requested that the General Assembly increase pay only for his administration s agency directors.
The plan also includes pay hikes for the lieutenant governor, comptroller, treasurer, attorney general and secretary of state. The governor earns $205,700, although JB Pritzker does not take it.
