Illinois Comptroller Leslie Munger says the state's backlog of unpaid bills will be roughly $10 billion by the year's end after factoring in the temporary spending plan lawmakers recently approved.  

Illinois legislators should expect a delay in their paychecks.

Illinois is on track to fall more than $6 billion further into debt amid the months-long budget stalemate. Comptroller Leslie Munger says spending will outpace last year's rates by $1.2 billion, which also includes a $5 billion revenue drop from the rolled back temporary income tax increase.

While the larger issue of a state budget remains unsolved, two area social service agencies are among those that expect to see Illinois' share of its funding this month.  They include Champaign-based Courage Connection, which will soon see nearly all its $400,000 that was expected in July.

Illinois won't make its next pension payment. Comptroller Leslie Munger announced Wednesday she can't, because the state doesn't have the cash. That'll require Illinois to tap into its pension accounts which could further exacerbate the impact on the funds.
