Don’t let them cut to the bone

In Springfield, they’ve had the same answer to budget deficits year after year: cut the fat. But today Illinois faces its biggest budget crisis ever. And the fat? It’s all but gone.

Without new revenue, there’s only one option left: deep, devastating cuts to the kind of vital services we all depend on—like home care for seniors and child care for our kids.

Drastic cuts that will hurt Illinois families and make a bad economy worse. In tough times, the right answer isn’t slashing home care and leaving vulnerable seniors on their own. Or taking child care away from working parents who’re struggling just to get by.

Tell Springfield the right answer is a plan for new revenue—a real plan that’s fair to all of us and that puts Illinois on solid fiscal footing for the years ahead.

Join the fight. Go to illinoisfuture.org.

Tell Springfield we need a fair plan for new revenue now.

TELL SPRINGFIELD: DON’T CUT HOME CARE and CHILD CARE!
