Despite budget approval, much is in limbo after session Governor says Legislature ‘has chosen not to be involved’ in many of his executive decisions

By Jerry Nowicki

Capitol News Illinois jnowicki@capitolnewsillinois.com

SPRINGFIELD – Lawmakers approved a state operating budget shortly before 2 a.m. Sunday, but despite the passage of the document, nothing about the next fiscal year is black and white.

The state is depending on a broad package providing federal monetary aid to states passing through the U.S. Congress, or, failing that, borrowing up to $5 billion from the U.S. Federal Reserve at an interest rate of approximately 3.8 percent.

“Well there’s no doubt that we’re going to have to revisit the budget if the federal government doesn’t come through,” Pritzker said when asked if the state had a plan for a revenue stream to pay back the borrowing. “I think all 50 states are going to have to be revisiting their budgets if the federal government doesn’t come through.”

Pritzker took questions in his office at the Capitol on Sunday morning, about nine hours after the General Assembly adjourned on just its fourth day of legislative session since March 5.

The $42.8 billion budget keeps spending roughly flat from a year ago despite revenue for next year decreasing by an unknown number of billions and the potential of even further economic devastation should COVID-19 see a resurgence in the fall that coincides with a virulent flu season.

“The budget the General Assembly has sent to my desk acknowledges that massive economic disruption leads to difficult decisions,” Pritzker said.

Democrats, upon the bill’s passage, said in times of economic crisis, government needs to continue to spend instead of balancing the budget on the backs of the less fortunate.

Pritzker echoed the argument Sunday.

“There was a strong look at, you know, what could be cut,” Pritzker said.

“Remember, though, this was all in the frame of a vastly increased need by families, workers, individuals all across the state.”

Republicans, however, called the budget balanced only on “a wing and a prayer.”

In House debate Saturday, Rep. Tom Demmer, R-Dixon, the GOP’s chief budget negotiator in the House, said there were billions of dollars, including some from the federal CARES Act, to be spent at Pritzker’s discretion with only limited guidance included in the budget.

“The ability for an administration to engage in emergency rulemaking and have control of more than $7 billion of state funds, with only broad strokes, broad umbrellas of programs and allocations for those dollars, I think should give members of this body pause,” Demmer said.

Rep. Gregory Harris, D-Chicago, said during debate the fact that the Legislature passed a full budget instead of a lump sum appropriation showed that it was exercising more oversight than other states were doing for their governors.

But Demmer said the governor’s emergency rulemaking track record – that he sought authority to implement misdemeanor fines for businesses disobeying his stay-at-home order – shows he didn’t earn the public’s trust when it comes to rulemaking.

“This talk about earning the authority, nobody knew a pandemic was coming,” Pritzker said when asked about Republican objections Sunday. “There’s just no way that anybody had any clue that we would be in this situation that we’re in right now.”

He said he would “do anything, give anything” to go back to a pre-COVID-19 level of normalcy.

“But here we are,” he said. “So, I think that there is a recognition anyway that we’re gonna have an unusual year here.”

Asked if he would be comfortable with the authority the Legislature has afforded him being wielded by his former Gov. Bruce Rauner, a Republican, Pritzker said, “no, that’s why I ran against him and beat him.”

“I’m going to try very hard to operate, as I have by the way, with transparency, letting everybody know what we’re doing and also why we’re doing it. And the biggest thing is listening to the science and the data.”

In regard to transparency, Pritzker said the way this year’s budget was negotiated was not ideal. The measure and everything else passed in the four-day session was negotiated by working groups of lawmakers without official avenues for public input.

“I will say that although the public wasn’t able to come in to hearings that the Legislature had, their representatives from both sides of the aisle were in fact in the working groups, it wasn’t a one-sided set of working groups, there were bipartisan groups working on these things.”

Sometimes those groups sought executive branch input, sometimes they didn’t, he said.

While Republicans went into the special session calling for a vote on the governor’s Restore Illinois five-phased business reopening plan and some sort of check on his executive authority and ability to

continuously extend disaster proclamations, no such vote occurred.

The closest thing to oversight was passed in a broad-ranging COVID-19 response bill that created a 14-member commission of eight Democrats and six Republicans that would work with the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to discuss the reopening plan.

The commission would be scheduled to release its first report on the reopening plan on July 1, at which time the state could already be entering the fourth phase of the plan.

Republicans called the commission “window dressing.”

“Well, the Legislature has chosen not to be involved in many of the decisions that needed to be made by the executive branch,” Pritzker said when asked about the commission. “And I think, you know, when you think about it – That’s why you have an executive branch in an emergency, I can act quickly. The executive branch can act quickly.”

While he said the General Assembly could not have met quickly enough to have input on his decisions early in the emergency effort, Pritzker said he was hoping the General Assembly would have gathered “much earlier” than last week.

On one particular measure, he said he believed the Legislature fell short. He had asked lawmakers to approve a measure allowing for monetary fines of businesses defying his stay-at-home order.

“I am very disappointed, I think it was a complete abdication of responsibility on the part of the Legislature,” he said, noting the director of the Illinois State Police asked for a measure providing such authority.

“None of us want to exercise the ability to take away someone’s license that’s been given to them by the state to do business.

Nobody wants to shut down a business.

What we were looking for was a way to issue a citation,” he said.

He said the state would have to “look at other mechanisms” for such enforcement, but he did not say what they are.

The governor said he is also looking at ways to implement the next phases of the plan and is considering issuing a fourth consecutive 30-day disaster proclamation.

“We want to make sure we can implement the Restore Illinois plan, and that we’re taking care that the health and safety of the people of Illinois is paramount, so we’re looking at it,” he said.

The governor also announced the release of broad guidance for industries reopening under phase 3 of his plan. That is viewable here: https://www2.illinois.gov/dceo/ pages/restoreILP3.aspx.

Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man

By Amy Forliti and Jeff Baenen Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – Four Minneapolis officers involved in the arrest of a black man who died in police custody were fired Tuesday, hours after a bystander’s video provoked widespread outrage with footage that showed the man pleading that he could not breathe as a white officer knelt on his neck.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey tweeted about the firings, saying “This is the right call.”

The man’s death Monday night after he struggled with officers was under investigation by the FBI and state law enforcement authorities. It immediately drew comparisons to the case of Eric Garner, an unarmed black man who died in 2014 in New York after he was placed in a chokehold by police and pleaded for his life, saying he could not breathe.

Frey apologized to the black community early Tuesday in a post on his Facebook page.

“Being Black in America should not be a death sentence. For five minutes, we watched a white officer press his knee into a Black man’s neck. Five minutes. When you hear someone calling for help, you’re supposed to help. This officer failed in the most basic, human sense,” Frey posted.

Police said the man matched the description of a suspect in a forgery case at a grocery store, and that he resisted arrest.

The unidentified officer ignores his pleas.

“Please, please, please, I can’t breathe.

Please, man,” the man, who is handcuffed, is heard telling the officer.

After several minutes, one of the officers tells the man to “relax.” Minutes pass, and the man becomes motionless under the officer’s restraint. The officer leaves his knee on the man’s neck for several minutes more.

Several witnesses had gathered on a nearby sidewalk, some recording the scene on their phones. The bystanders became increasingly agitated as the man pleaded with police. One bystander told officers they need to let him breathe. Another yelled at them to check the man’s pulse.

The victim was identified as George Floyd by Ben Crump, a prominent civil rights and personal injury attorney who said he had been hired by Floyd’s family.

“We all watched the horrific death of George Floyd on video as witnesses begged the police officer to take him into the police car and get off his neck,” Crump said in a statement. “This abusive, excessive and inhumane use of force cost the life of a man who was being detained by the police for questioning about a non-violent charge.”

Charles McMillian, 60, of Minneapolis, said he saw police trying to get Floyd into the back of the squad car and heard Floyd tell them he was claustrophobic.

After having the officer’s knee on his neck, McMillian said, the man started calling his mother’s name, “and then he died.”

“It’s sad because it didn’t have to happen,” McMillian said.

Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo said the department would conduct a full internal investigation.

Experts on police use of force told The Associated Press that the officer clearly restrained the man too long. They noted the man was under control and no longer fighting. Andrew Scott, a former Boca Raton, Florida, police chief who now testifies as an expert witness in use-of-force cases, called Floyd’s death “a combination of not being trained properly or disregarding their training.”

“He couldn’t move. He was telling them he couldn’t breathe, and they ignored him,” Scott said. “I can’t even describe it. It was difficult to watch.”

The New York City officer in the Garner case said he was using a legal maneuver called “the seatbelt” to bring down Garner, whom police said had been resisting arrest.

But the medical examiner referred to it as a chokehold in the autopsy report and said it contributed to his death. Chokehold maneuvers are banned under New York police policy.

A grand jury later decided against indicting the officers involved in Garner’s death, sparking protests around the country.

In Minneapolis, kneeling on a suspect’s neck is allowed under the department’s use-of-force policy for officers who have received training in how to compress a neck without applying direct pressure to the airway. It is considered a “non-deadly force option,” according to the department’s policy handbook.

A chokehold is considered a deadly force option and involves someone obstructing

the airway. According to the department’s use-of-force policy, officers are to use only an amount of force necessary that would be objectively reasonable.

The police union asked the public to wait for the investigation to take its course and not to “rush to judgment and immediately condemn our officers.” The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office, which would handle any prosecution of police on state charges, said in a statement that it was “shocked and saddened” by the video and pledged to handle the case fairly. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Minnesota declined comment.

The death came amid outrage over the death of Ahmaud Arbery, who was fatally shot Feb. 23 in Georgia after a white father and son pursued the 25-year-old black man they had spotted running in their subdivision. More than two months passed before charges were brought. Crump also represents Arbery’s father.

All body camera footage in the Minneapolis case was turned over to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, and the agency asked to speak with anyone who saw the arrest or recorded video. The officers involved have been put on paid administrative leave, per department protocol.

The agency said the officers’ names will be released after initial interviews with the people involved and witnesses.

The FBI is conducting a separate federal civil rights investigation, at the request of Minneapolis police, the BCA said. Messages left with the FBI were not immediately returned.

The American Civil Liberties Union was among many organizations calling for the officers to be held accountable.

“You can’t watch this appalling video posted by brave eyewitnesses on social media without seeing police officers’ callous disregard for a black man’s life,” ACLU of Minnesota Executive Director John Gordon said, calling the death “both needless and preventable.”

Stock Market

Wall Street up as recovery hopes overshadow virus worries

By Alex Veiga

Associated Press

Stocks surged on Wall Street Tuesday, driving the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average to their highest levels in nearly three months as optimism over the reopening of the economy overshadowed lingering worries about the coronavirus pandemic.

The S&P 500 was up 1.8% to 3,007 points.

It’s the first time the benchmark index has been above the 3,000-point mark since March 5. The Dow crossed the 25,000-point threshold for the first time since March 10, before widespread business shutdowns aimed at slowing the spread of the outbreak sent the U.S. economy into a sharp skid.

The post-Memorial Day rally followed a strong rise in global markets as more nations push to open their economies.

Financials, technology and industrial stocks powered much of the broad gains.

Airlines were big winners as traders welcomed data showing a pickup in air travel during the holiday weekend.

“That was one of the concerns of the recovery, that people would be hesitant to resume their lives,” said Willie Delwiche, investment strategist at Baird. “This is a stock market that’s looking ahead to the economy improving and maybe moving beyond the lockdown mentality...Two weeks from now, if you have a spike in cases, then everyone will reconsider things.”

The S&P 500 was coming off a solid week and is on track for a second-straight month of gains. The index remains down about 11% from its all-time high in February. The Dow climbed 673 points, or 2.8%, to 25,140.

The Nasdaq rose 0.7% and the Russell 2000 index of small companies gained 3.3%.

Fears of a crushing recession due to the coronavirus sent the S&P 500 into a skid of more than 30% in March. Hopes for a relatively quick rebound and unprecedented moves by the Federal Reserve and Congress to stem the economic pain drove a historic rebound for stocks in April and have bolstered optimism that the market won’t return to the depths seen two months ago.

Fresh optimism about the development of potential vaccines for COVID-19 have also helped lift stocks. Investors are keenly

focused on the process of reopening the U.S. economy, which is likely to accelerate over the summer. Concerns remain that reopening businesses could lead to another surge in infections, potentially hobbling efforts to get the nation’s battered economy growing again.

A couple of economic reports gave traders more reason for encouragement Tuesday.

The Commerce Department said sales of new U.S. homes inched up 0.6% last month, a surprising gain that hints at the relative health of many consumers. Over the past 12 months, sales are down 6.2%. Meanwhile, the Conference Board said its index of consumer confidence ticked up in May to 86.6 from a reading of 85.7 in April. The index is still down sharply from February’s reading, when it climbed to 130.7.

Optimism over the prospect that consumers will be eager and able to spend money as more businesses open helped push travel-related stocks sharply higher Tuesday. Norwegian Cruise Line climbed 14.6%, Royal Caribbean jumped 15.6% and Carnival rose 13.8%.

Airline stocks soared on indications that air travel is recovering from mid-April lows, although it remains down sharply from pre-pandemic levels. The Transportation Security Administration said about 340,000 people passed through airport checkpoints on Memorial Day. That’s 86.4% less than last year’s holiday, but it’s the smallest percentage drop in U.S. air travel since March 22.

UBS upgraded Southwest Airlines to “buy” from “neutral” on better prospects for a recovery in domestic travel. Shares of all six leading U.S. carriers — Delta, American, United, Southwest, Alaska and JetBlue -- were up between 13% and 16%.

The banking sector led Wall Street’s rally. JPMorgan jumped 8.2% and Bank of America climbed 8%.

Bond yields were broadly higher, in another sign of optimism. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, a benchmark for interest rates on many consumer loans, rose to 0.70% from 0.66% late Friday.

Oil prices were mixed. Benchmark U.S. crude oil was up 2.2% to $33.99 a barrel.

Brent crude oil, the international standard, slipped 0.6% to $36.51 a barrel.

Reassuring comments by the head of China’s central bank helped spur buying in global markets Tuesday. France’s CAC 40 climbed 1.5%, while Germany’s DAX gained 1%. The FTSE 100 in Britain, which was closed on Monday, rose 1.2%. Asian markets closed higher.

In another confidence-boosting development on Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange reopened its trading floor Tuesday for the first time since mid-March, when it closed due to the coronavirus outbreak.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo rang the opening bell at the NYSE, which allowed a limited number of traders back to the floor.

It required that traders adhere to social distancing guidelines and wear masks.

“The message of the NYSE reopening is symbolic not only for our community

and our country, but it is for the globe,” said Jonathan Corpina, senior managing partner at Meridian Equity Partners and one of the NYSE floor traders. “It’s showing that we are ready to reopen our economy and reopen our country and move things in the right direction.”

End of trade update: Wall Street is closing higher as hopes for economic recovery overshadow worries over the coronavirus pandemic. The S&P 500 jumped to a nearly 3-month high, recovering much of its post-pandemic losses. Investors are shifting their focus to how various nations are adapting to getting back to business, while striving to keep new COVID-19 cases in check. Reassuring comments by the head of China’s central bank also helped spur buying. Benchmarks in Paris, London and Tokyo also gained on Tuesday.

It’s Spring - Get Planting!

Hanging baskets and plants at Pepper Creek

Plants at Village Green

Spring is in full swing and is bustling with flowers and plants sprouting up.

If you’re like me, finding time to clean out your flower beds and fill them with plants can seem daunting. However, if you put in the time and effort now, you can enjoy fairly low maintenance flower beds throughout the rest of spring and summer.

To keep your flower beds low maintenance, consider incorporating potted annuals that don’t require deadheading. A decorative garden accessory such as a bird bath or spinner also makes nice fillers. Most importantly, be sure you have plenty of mulch. Mulch will help your plants retain moisture without a lot of watering and will greatly reduce the amount of time you will spend weeding.

First Step

Get Inspired

The first step to beautiful flower beds is always the worst...the cleanup. Rake out your beds, prune back last year’s perennial stalks and generally “fluff” stuff. Once the cleanup is done, you will be able to assess what you have and plan for what you need.

Looking to get inspired? The Rockford region is home to several beautiful outdoor gardens. Take a walk around Klehm Arboretum & Botanic Garden or Sinnissippi Gardens just outside the Nicholas Conservatory. Just one look at

Keeping wildlife out of the garden

BY GRANT MCCARTY CONTRIBUTOR

Around the same time that you plant your vegetable garden, you may start to notice the presence of wildlife. If you have been growing in the same area, you’re probably aware of your wildlife population. Deer, rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, and others can target certain vegetables at the start of your growing season and throughout.

When it comes to managing these pests though, you may find that you are limited in what you are able to do.

It’s important to recognize that every backyard can be a bit di�erent. The wildlife population that you might be dealing with

may look di�erent from your neighbors.

You need to also recognize that multiple strategies may be recommended and may not fully address your problem. It’s really important to think about your crop vulnerabilities. Are your vegetable plants completely exposed as you plant them in a growing area? Are you planting them beside ornamentals like hostas that are already damaged by deer and now your vegetable may be attractive to them?

Proper identification of damage is crucial here. Each mammal will eat/ damage your plant di�erently. They may also target certain vegetables over others.

We commonly see squirrel and chipmunk

damage on strawberry and tomato.

Raccoons love sweet corn and tend to target that vegetable. Deer like leafy green vegetables but will still go after melons sometimes as they are ripening.

The main suggestion for dealing with wildlife is exclusion. How can you keep wildlife from getting to your growing area? For most mammals, this is going to be fencing and netting with each mammal needing sometimes a di�erent size width of the opening to keep them out. Repellents and scare tactics do not tend to work for mammal management.

Consider modification of your area.

Keeping it weed free where populations

cannot build up. Remove piles of brush nearby. Ensure that any openings around your house like near it’s foundation are closed o�. You might also consider removal of bird feeders which can allow for squirrels, chipmunks, and others to be fed. Food bowls and water dishes can increase raccoon populations if left overnight. Ensure that all trash can lids are tightly secure.

Next week, I’ll continue mammal management recommendations.

Adjusting to a changing economy

BY DRS. ROBERT & SONIA VOGL CONTRIBUTORS

An early critic of fossil fuel dependence, James Kunstler, caught our attention with his early book, The Long Emergency. We read the book and heard him speak at the Land Institute in Kansas There we had a chance to share our response to his presentation with a member of the Udall family. He summed up his response by indicating that Kunstler’s message had some validity but he thought it was too extreme.

In a recent radio interview Kunstler talked about current conditions as portrayed in his new book, Living in the Long Emergency. He feels we are set up for a big societal reaction to the virus lockdown and economic collapse which could lead to social disorder. He remains unsure of what to believe about covid-19 beyond the fact that it is killing many older people.

He foresees a permanent decline in revenue flows to the auto, airline and cruise ship industries. With people lacking income from jobs he anticipates a lower standard of living and simpler lives. He feels large cities will be under stress and likely to shrink in size. As complex entities they will be unable to raise su�cient revenue to meet their maintenance needs.

With work being accomplished via internet connections large, tall o�ce buildings are likely to stand empty as many did during earlier depressions. A number of our friends are doing legal work and bond transactions for their firms in their home o�ces. A nephew continues to coordinate

a computer team working out of his home.

Kunstler thinks the auto industry faces collapse as the public lacks the funds to purchase them. Both new and used car sales are already being financed by seven year loans with many people having problems keeping up on their loan payments.

He retains his view of the vulnerability of suburban living as communities will be unable to fund the maintenance of their streets. If pension payments are reduced or disappear retired people will have di�culty paying property taxes.

He retains a positive outlook on the recovery of small towns as they are likely to be seen in a more positive light especially if they are surrounded by farmland. With signs that food supply chains are collapsing, being closer to where food is grown will prove advantageous. The current approach to industrial farming is heavily depended on fertilizers, pesticides and large scale equipment and on large amounts of energy and capital which Kunstler believes will be di�cult to secure.

Farmers raising animals under contract to large meat processing facilities are having problems shipping animals to market with the decline in demand. Reports indicate that without processing facilities farmers are being forced to kill chickens and hogs as they cannot a�ord to continue to feed them.

The famed investor Warren Bu�et has sold his stake in airlines and sees his recent investments in the oil industry as a mistake. The shale oil industry has

benefitted from zero interest financing but with low oil prices they are unable to profit and pay down their loans. The industry is expected to start closing down wells and sealing them with cement plugs.

With oil use in the U.S. having been as high as 20 million barrels per day in recent years and 13 mb/d being produced here, we have to secure the remaining oil through imports. Given that fracking for oil is coming from the last oil reserves, it is questionable why we are still exporting

oil and gas out of the country.

Kuntsler’s new book calls attention to people he calls the early adopters who have already adjusted their lives to what they anticipate will be a bad economy.

In a sense, Kuntsler repeats what has been considered extreme views in his latest book. Given his dire perspective, it is not hard to see why some political leaders are pushing for opening up of the economy despite the risks of contacting covid-19.
