HOUSE RESOLUTION

 
2     WHEREAS, The current economic climate has made it difficult
3 to frame a consensus and approve a responsible, balanced budget
4 for the State of Illinois for Fiscal Year 2005; and
 
5     WHEREAS, The Governor and the leaders and members of the
6 General Assembly have been meeting in an effort to resolve
7 differences and agree on a budget that will allow the State to
8 continue operations on and after July 1, 2004; and
 
9     WHEREAS, Lawmakers now believe that a new budget must be
10 approved by July 12, 2004 to ensure that State employee
11 paychecks are not delayed; and
 
12     WHEREAS, If paychecks are delayed to State employees and to
13 employees of organizations that rely on State grants and
14 funding, then thousands of families across Illinois will face
15 financial hardship; therefore, be it
 
16     RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
17 NINETY-THIRD GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we
18 urge banks and other financial institutions doing business in
19 Illinois to offer no-interest or low-interest loans, based upon
20 most-recent pay stubs, to State employees, and also to
21 employees of organizations that rely on State grants and
22 funding, if the employees do not receive their paychecks in a
23 reasonable and timely manner due to the lack of a Fiscal Year
24 2005 budget; and be it further
 
25     RESOLVED, That a copy of this resolution be presented to
26 the Director of Financial and Professional Regulation for
27 distribution to banks and other financial institutions doing
28 business in Illinois.
