(Urbana, IL) — Former Republican Governor Jim Edgar says Illinois will have to raise taxes. The former governor told a crowd at the University of Illinois yesterday that Illinois is going to need new money to pay off its mountain of unpaid bills. Edgar said Illinois should also go on a spending ‘diet,’ but he didn’t offer any suggestions on where to cut spending.
