State agency is ignoring salary database law | |
|
August 13, 2014 An Illinois law requiring the state to keep a salary database of most local government employees is being disregarded because no money was every appropriated to pay for it. Department officials claim they were never given funding to create the database and so didn't have to. "It's nice to know these progressive bills we pass to increase transparency are being ignored," said Susan Garrett, a former Democratic state senator from Lake Forest.
