Rauner, Leaders Should Keep Budget Talk Private, Business Leaders Say
via Daily Herald
“The state’s top business leaders are encouraging Gov. Bruce Rauner and top lawmakers to keep their highly anticipated budget meeting next week private, saying public spectacle surrounding talks would be “counterproductive.”
A meeting between Rauner and the four legislative leaders was pitched by a group of good-government groups, and it has been billed as a public meeting even though few details about the Nov. 18 summit have been set.
In a letter to the leaders Thursday, the Illinois Manufacturers’ Association, Illinois Chamber of Commerce and others urged a private meeting.”
