Buckle up

State legislators will soon start talking about another way to bring fast cash to Illinois - privatizing the state's tollways. Indiana lawmakers approved the idea this spring.

State Sen. Jeff Schoenberg, an Evanston Democrat, said the Senate Appropriations II Committee will hold four hearings this summer:
1. Chicago, 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, May 31
2. Will County, June 13
3. Springfield, August 15
4. Chicago, September 13

More to come from Illinois Issues soon.
