Illinois is adding 100-million-dollars to its “Rainy Day” fund. With the latest deposit, Illinois now has more than 850-million-dollars in the bank to weather potential economic turbulence. Governor Pritzker and the General Assembly are working to have a record one-billion-dollars in the account this fiscal year. Officials say the growing “Rainy Day” fund is one of the many steps towards financial responsibility.
