We recently spoke with Illinois Senator Daniel Biss (9th) about the Illinois Budget Impasse. A member of the Human Services Committee, Senator Biss offered unique insights into how the budget crisis is directly affecting the nonprofit and philanthropic sectors in Illinois. We asked Biss if we should be worried about the trajectory of the relationship between the state and the nonprofit sector, whether this impasse will cost taxpayers more in the long run, and what the role of philanthropy shoud be in all this.
