further clarified the fiscal outlook for fiscal year:

Washburn: ''We1lw first of a1l ah... ah... Mr. Spedkery 1et
me explain thak this the annual revenue estimate as -L!, required by the Conskitution and ah... would move for '
' its adoption, of course, but in answer to Represen'tative .

Tipsword : ''Yes . '' '
Washburn: ''It was copied .off the one that was adopted last

with the responsibility for the legislature of making

in regard there to where ah... never held, they were

'' Washburn: ''Ah... what do you think?''
Tipsword: ''No, I donît think it was. It wasn't to me ah...
l talked to another Member of the Commission it was '
not presented to him ah... I wrote a letter, nok long
ago to the Commission asking why we hadn't had the,
'
jmeetings that had been called to make the determination
. Ehat was required by Ehe ah... Constitution and by '
jthe statutes thak we have passed heretofore and wrote !' ' to the ah... Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Comniss-
ion and to this day, received no repl#. : This has been
. a couple of weeks ago, except that the ah... deteètive
of the Commission did call me and was very disturbed '
that he received a letter from me, which I told him ' . - p
that I didn't think the Commission was living up to -
its responsibility and I doubt sincerely that We even
needed the Staff that we are paying an awful 1ok ôf
money for when we are nok coming up what is really '
required for the Constitution and thak is a determinat- '
ion an ackual determination of the income available
to be exspended and qthe total expenditures, and I think!
this actually... Ehis Resolution is absolutelk un-consk-!

'- 1
stftueêz- .!.'>1i:hk I say a few' ramtarksz I vëry much appreciate '.' 1. that Répresentative ttone has agreed to it because I

Constitution. I think khis is the first Representative

of khe Members of that Commission that are charged 1
with the responsibility of making this determination 1had ever heard of it. I know we passed a similar
Resolution in the Sprinq which was an expedient matter. '
I think we passed a simllar Resolution a year ago as ,1'
' a matter of expediency. And just the one thing that jentered into my mind. I am going to vote for it
even khough l think itls unconstitutidnal 'cause we .I
have gotta take somè action even if it's an . - '
unconstitutional ackion as provided by the heretofore' described provisions in the Constitukion. Bu* I also
think that we should be well looking into whekher or
not we even need thàt expensive staff we have got over' 1there at some very hiqh salavies, some very competent '' I
le and I think aren't really earning their pay, !peop' j

by this House. The Resolution suqgests that pollution
control devices on automobilès should be removed and
that the Environmental Proteetion Agency consider very
strongly not requiring that. Now, T can understand
his concern that there is a fuel shortage and that these
devices certainly use upe cause more fuèl to be used
than it would if the devices were not on them. But I
don't think iE's for us at this time of the night to
consider this matter and I would strongly urge khe
Gentleman to withdraw his motion and permit this
Resolution to be referred to the appropriate Committee

and I therefore, Mr. Speaker, oppose the Gentleman's
motion if he persisks in it.'' .
Speaker Blair: ''The Gentleman from Vermilion, Mr. Craig.''
Craig: ''Mr. Speaker and Members of the House, I would like
to persist in èhis motion because I feel like this is
somethiv: that is very importantz not only to us
here in this General Assembly but not only ko the
people of Illinois but a1l over this nation and this is
. a crisis as they have called it and I want to say to
everybody if this goès to Committee and we are going
ko be out of here for Saturdaye it will not be acked
upon. And I want to say that I think that the people
of this nation, ve have always had to have an
environmental impact segment. Every time we have ever
done anything in the past couple or three years and I
think it's high time that we Eake in consideration the' economic impact segment and I want to say to a11 of .
you that l think we have found out by some of the rulms
and the regulations and the laws that we have done '
in the past that this country neither can afford nor
they don't have the resources to make the rapid changes
that have been asked upon them and plàced upon them
to do. I am talking abouk oi1 o'ut of the shale in the
' West or gasification of coal which is seven to ten
years away and I think itïs time for us to reconsider
what we have done. I realize we have spent some money
to do this but we are now in a crisis today that I
think is going to involve not only the people in Illinois
. with jobs but the people with .jobs a11 over this nation
and I am not one to preach gloom and doom. But T am'
. )here to tell you this. I think that there is not no
one thing that you can tamper with other than the
automobile industry that will set this country back in(a depression more than that will. And I think the

I haye heard people and commentakors and people in

people will be forced out of business and I think it's

Bill 8. Senate Bill 8 is in my opinion, a very good
hi s and disclosure Bill. It does noE require 'et c
disclosure of income tax returns which I consider to
be an invasion of privacy but it does require that
which 1 think reasonàbly ought to be reqiuired. Novv I
tried last week to get this Bill referred to a Committee.
I tried on two occasions to get thls Bill to a
Committee and neither time was I able to get the Bill
referred to a Committee. I Was perfectly uilling and
suggested here on the floor that we have a Committee
of the whole before the House opened so the matter
could be heard but I was greeked wiEh no suppor: and
accordingly I am forced into the position here that if
we were serious when we came into this special session,
the first special ses'sion about needing legislation
relating to ethics and disclosure, then we will have

comfort from the fact that we knew that very few of

Now, we have a Bi11 which has come through the Senate. I
It is a good Bill. It doesn't over-regulate but it

this point in time the only remaining hope for a
' meaningful ethics Bill to come out of the first special
session of the Legislature. Now, I think the vote on
this Roll Call is as simple as thak. This is the.. y '
last remaining hope. If we are really serious about

if we are really serious about not having al1 of the

to disclose how much it is workh. You don't have to

information that would be of a personal nature. But
political contributions over $100 are matters of

as Representative Duff pointed out, this Bill is not
going Eo take its effect until next July l even if we1
should pass it. I think we are making a serious mistake
in being stampeded in'ko consideration of one Bill,
especially in the light that this is not thè last hope jas has been suggested by one previous speaker. There
are thre'e Senake Bills on the floor of the House right
now. I happen to be the Sponsor of one of them/ Senate
Bill 12 which is Senate Harris' Bi11. I think it is
a far superior Bill than Senate Bill 8. But this is
something that I think should be hashed out in
Committee whether it.be a standfng Committee or aJCommiktee of the whole as we went through in our own
ethics considerationg and debate. We are now asked
to, at Ehe lask minute, stampede ourselves into
consideration of a Bill which I khink is, in many waysg
quite deèective, a Bill that I find repugnant in many
respecks. As a matker of fact, T even have Amendments
that I would like to offer.for consideration to the -
Bill that I sponsor myself. So Ehis is not kimely.
I wish, along with Representative Katz, that we had
been able to get Bills assigned to Commitkee prior to
Ehis late date. But that is no argumenk to say khat
at this time we should go ahead and steamroller
ourselves into consideration of what I think may be a
very bad Bill. We do have time. Unfortunately, we
are running out of time in this current session. But
we do have time before the effective date of these
Bills and I think that I have to endorse the arguments
of Representative Bluthardt and I woùld hope that these
Bills would be considered in orderly fashion and in
Committee, whether it be in Committee or Committee of
the whole. And so for that, those reasons, Mr. Speaker,
I must somewhat reluckantly vote 'nol on the motion.''

you really need fo:.... for the drafting of Bills, the
' preperation of a Budget and I wonder if, dôes this

!- Washburn: ''No, there isn't any provision but his budget has

earlier... this in no way alters the legislative pro-
cess it skill ah... kould have the opportunity to be
amended as the Admipistration saw fik, either in èom-
mittee or on.second Reading and you know as well as I
do that it takes a long time after they are introduced
to reach final state so, I think we would at least
have the basic to look aE,= study and then the alkerat-
ions could be made at a later time and progress through
the channels.''
Tipsword: ''I understand what youdre talking about that brings
up, I think a very important point. I think that it's
important to get these Bills as early as possible but'
if they are prepabed so that they can be submitted to

true on Ahe other side. The.... if you read the Bill

that wedre trying to provide is like what happen to
the Deparkment of Meàtal Hea1th this pass Sebsion where )'
jthat appropriation Bill was submitted to the House in
!the beginning of June and itls pretty hard to evaluate I
an appropriation of that magnitude within a week's
time ahd I think within a11 fairness this is what this
Bill is trying to prevent, this is a step in the right '
direction and I donlt know what's happen in the past
but there has been a 1ot of changes in business and
corporations and systems and changing ah... different
ways of doing things and I think itls a change in the
right directiono''
Tipsword: ''Wel1, Mr. Lechowicz, is that really going to
make any difference in regard to Ehe way in.':which the'
Membership gets them, you say they are only going to
be prepared and submitted to the leadership but it doesn' -
change the manner in'which they are gding to be filed.

Lechowicz: ''Unfortunately Tip, that ah... thak this is the '' only ah... agreement.that we could get from the Governor's
' Office and his Staff. I think it's a step in the right
direction, I don't think it goes far enough but ah...
let's see how it works.''
Speaker Telcser: ''The gentleman from Cook, Representative
Harold Washington.''
Washington: ''Yes, I have a question of the Sponsor.'':) Speaker Telcser: ''He indieates, he yields.'' .f@t Washington: ''I gather part of the logic for this Bill is !' y1 that since the Budget must be submitted at a given ij :? s lar appropriation 1Eime, it follows you say that part cui:. I) should be submikted at that time, fs that what you are 71

this reason. The budget itself stands to be revised.% .
' It gives general directions more or less as to where
the Governor is going. I think Reprqsentati've Tipsword
put his finger on the problem. What, it seems to me,
you have to do is tq make an exception for the first '
year of a new Governor's term. I think it is very ë
ali'sEic whether he is democrat or republican to I iunre j. i
1impose this kind of a strvcture on him. He simply .
cannot master, obviously he can't master, as the
' Appropriation Committee can't master after years and'
years of work, a budget of $7 billion within the space
of three months and khere is simply no reason Eo
impose that kind o'f a burden on him. I would adopt
or go along with your logic here if you would make' an exception, rather two exceptions really, one to
permit a first term Governor a little bit more
j *'operating room and two, I think every Member of the1-l . House and Senate should have a copy bf that. Short
of that, I can't support it because I think you have -
gone just too far in one direction by imposing askandard and not far enough in the other direction by
confining that material to the leadership.'' '
Washburn: 'fWe11 Harold, l really donft think that it is an
imposition because the budget book has to be prepared
and if the budget book is prepared I see no reason why2
' Bill preparation' isn't in order either and as I will
repeat, there will be ample time and opportunity to,2
amend it and get it in the form the administration
wishes before it ever reaches final stage in either
jl 1. ;OuSe. ;. !
Washington: ''Wel1, my point is, what's the point in requiring,( '; an appropriation? Why can't we simply take the budget
and based on the estimates in the budget by the Governor,tkl guide our operations accordingly? Why impose on ajy ' . !t i siyl and subject !, first term Governor an Appropriat on.$k: . ') him to the embarrassment of having to amend a11 hisi. .

Bills over and over again and revise them? There isj ' no point in it.''
Washburn: ''I realize thak this Governor has his first session
under his belt but I am sure that the thoughts of it
and the pemories of it are fresh in his mind and he
agrees with this system and so does his budget director
so I would think that that would be some indication
that it would be possible for the first year of a
Governor to meet this requirement.''
Washingkon: ''I have greak faith in the Governor but I
prefer to do my own thinking. Now if he has conceded
that I khink he has conceded too much. I am simply
maintàining that a first term Governor, in many
instancesy simply wouldn't come out with an intelligent
documentv''
Speaker Telcser: ''The Gentleman from Logany Representative
Lauer.''
Lauer: ''Mr. Speaker, it seems to me that the previous *
Gentleman spared somewhat in calling this malicious
logic because if we listen at a11 to campaign speechas
of would be Governors they have a tendency ko discuss
at great length fiscal matters. They seem to be
much more knowledgeable than Governors who have been
incumbents for a numher of years and it seems to me
that perhaps we should give them a chance to prove .
their financial competence and their cohprehension of
the State financial process and I don't think that the
requirements of the first of April is at all ûnwarranted.''
Speaker Telcser: ''The Gentleman from Cook, Representative
Lundy.''
Lundy: ''Thank youy Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentlenen of *he
House. Would the Sponsor of the Bill yield for a
couple of questions?''

Lundy: ''We11, my further question, theny based on that
answer is how do we expect the Governor to be able '
to submit appropriations Bills for Departments of'
State government over which he has no control?''
Ik I IWashburn: I don t quite ge* Ehe pqint of your question.
I didnft catch that, Representative Lundy.'' j. Lundy: ''If the Bill applies to Departments such as OSPI
Yhich are not under the direct control of the jGovernor and I take ik khe Bill is aimed primarily
at the Governorv'and the Bureau of the Budget, how can. @'
