Gov. Bruce Rauner's administration now says it plans to rebuild dormitories at the Quincy veterans' home where Legionnaires' disease continues to be a problem.

A report obtained by The Associated Press shows engineers told Governor Bruce Rauner's administration in 2016 that replacing problematic plumbing at a veterans' home beset by Legionnaires' disease would cost $8 million, much lower than the estimate provided by state officials. 

The Mayor of Quincy says politicians should focus on taking care of veterans at the state run home in his town and not on blaming others for political gain.

GOP leaders in Congress had not yet released the final version of their tax reform bill when Senator Tammy Duckworth made a stop in Champaign Friday. But the freshman Democrat said she didn’t see how Republicans would adjust the bill's main features that she opposes.
