Illinois' state pension debt is currently at $95 billion — citizens discussed their ideas of how to fix that at Monday's meeting.
Passions were high at Monday night's town hall meeting on current state pension proposals. Panelists at the meeting, which was held at the Wilmette Community Center, included Sen.

The Evanston Police Pension Board on Thursday granted a former police commander a $1,300 annual pay increase that went into effect a month after he announced his retirement. Former Evanston Cmdr.
