SPRINGFIELD – State Senator Meg Loughran Cappel (D-Shorewood) released the following statement regarding the governor’s Fiscal Year 2027 budget address on Wednesday:
“The governor’s budget proposal includes many important investments for our community, ensuring K-12 education remains funded and health and human services stays a priority.
