Illinois marks its fourth consecutive year surpassing 100 tornadoes, with a preliminary count of 101 as of April 22, nearly double the annual average of 54, according to CBS News Chicago. This surge, leading the nation, includes severe flooding, hail, and damaging winds, amid a warming climate boosting activity. In politics, the Illinois House approved a long-stalled megaprojects bill, advancing tax incentives and state-backed loans that could pave the way for the Chicago Bears to build a stadium in Arlington Heights, as reported by WTTW News and a Chicago Report update. Governor JB Pritzker weighed in supportively for the first time, per WGN News. However, a proposed 3% millionaire's tax surtax for property tax relief and school funding faces hurdles; House Speaker Chris Welch indicated it lacks votes for a November ballot by the May 3 deadline, according to Capitol News Illinois and Fox 32 Chicago. Meanwhile, the African Descent-Citizens Reparations Commission holds a public hearing in Chicago, via the Illinois government site. Economically, mixed job growth persists, with Springfield and Rockford metros seeing over-the-year declines of 2.4% and more, reports the Illinois Department of Employment Security. Marion County's unemployment rose to 5.5% in February. Community-wise, a Mt. Vernon man received a 75-year sentence for a 2024 shooting, per Southern Illinois Now. Centralia High School bids for sidewalk repairs using safety funds, and Salem's police chief departed amid investigation. Looking Ahead: Watch for the Senate's response to the megaprojects bill, potential millionaire tax maneuvers before session ends next month, and ongoing severe weather risks into spring.
