May 30, 2025: Illinois lawmakers mover closer to finalizing budget, Elon Musk leaves DOGE, and more restrictions on international students

This week in our Politics Roundup, the Illinois General Assembly closes in on a state spending plan as the spring legislative session is scheduled to end this weekend. In national politics, we discuss what's next for the Department of Government Efficiency as Elon Musk announces his departure, and the State Department's threat to revoke visas for some Chinese students.

A reporter covering state government and IPM's Washington correspondent join the program today.
