Blago calls out Madigan for not bringing the sales tax plan to a vote in the Senate, but then pledges to veto that same tax plan should the Senate pass it.
IL government is full of shit.
I think the gas-tax plan would have some momentum if not for the governor's attitude. As it stands, I don't think any plan for transit-funding can secure a veto-proof majority, so the governor can basically dictate his terms and the 51-65% of legislators have to comply if they want to get anything passed at all.
