Quinn Hopes for Civil Unions Vote in Fall Session
(AP) — Gov. Pat Quinn said Wednesday it would be good for Illinois’ economy if lawmakers, when they return to work next week in Springfield, passed legislation allowing gay couples to form civil unions. In an Associated Press interview, the Chicago Democrat also said he hopes his recent election win changes the dynamic at the Illinois Capitol so that lawmakers sign on to his proposal to raise the state income tax, something he campaigned on to help fund education.
