Deputy Orlando arrived at the scene and treated the Veteran with compassion and respect. Due to his calm demeanor, he is credited with preventing the already high-risk situation from escalating. Deputy Orlando arranged for the Veteran to be transported to the FHCC to receive further treatment and comprehensive care. Telecommunicator Reum, Deputy Foy, and Deputy Orlando all received high praise from FHCC Director, Doctor Robert Grant Buckley, during a ceremony held at the FHCC on February 5. Sheriff John D.

Three members of the Lake County Sheriff’s Office received high honors from the Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center (FHCC) in North Chicago. Telecommunicator Monika Reum, Deputy Francis Foy, and Deputy Christopher Orlando received the recognition after being in different situations where they provided assistance and resources to Veterans in mental distress. In September of 2023, Deputy Foy, who is assigned to our Crisis Outreach and Support Team (COaST), responded to the home of a Veteran in crisis. Deputy Foy immediately established a calm rapport with the Veteran, while building trust with him. Deputy Foy utilized that established trust to facilitate the Veteran being transported to the FHCC for needed medical and mental health care. Senior leadership at the FHCC credited Deputy Foy with likely saving the Veteran’s life. In October of 2023, Telecommunicator Reum took an emergency phone call regarding a Veteran in mental distress. Telecommunicator Reum took the time to speak empathetically to the caller and learn crucial information. Telecommunicator Reum dispatched Deputy Christopher Orlando to re-

Fertility treatments Members of the state Senate Democratic Caucus introduced three bills Wednesday aimed at increasing access to infertility treatments and fertility preservation. If passed, the bills would require insurance companies to cover the diagnosis and treatment of infertility, certain prescription medications, and preservation of reproductive cells by amending the Illinois Insurance Code. Senate Bill 2572 would require insurance coverage of procedures used to diagnose
and treat infertility, as well as injectable medications used to treat prediabetes, gestational diabetes and obesity—all of which can make it harder to conceive and carry a baby to term. Senate Bill 2623 would require insurers to cover the freezing of an individual’s reproductive cells without restriction or exclusion. Another measure, Senate Bill 2639, would prevent insurance companies from denying infertility treatment coverage when recommended by a physician.

Manufacturers’ agenda
Tax credits were also included in a wide-ranging legislative agenda put forth by the Illinois Manufacturers’ Association. House Bill 4670 creates a pilot program to allow manufacturers to create onsite child care programs and provide tax credits to those who do. “We know that the lack of available child care is a hindrance to getting and keeping people, especially women, in the workforce,” sponsor Rep. Amy Elik, R-Godfrey, said. The IMA reaffirmed support for three bills filed last spring, including two tax credits – one sponsored by Democrats, the other by Republicans. The IMA did not provide cost estimates for the tax credits. Sen. Meg Loughran Cappel, D-Shorewood, filed Senate Bill 1313 to create a tax credit for businesses that assist their employees in repaying student loans. “Student debt is a huge issue. This proposal would allow an employer to help offset about five thousand dollars per year,” IMA President and CEO Mark Denzler

infants and children, known as WIC—and it assumes that 100 percent of eligible families will claim the credit. Frank Manzo, an economist with ILEPI and co-author of that report, said a $300 per-child credit would be lower than in the other 15 states that have similar policies. Utah, Minnesota and Oregon, which enacted a similar credit last year, all offer $1,000 or more in credits. “But it does comport with some budgetary realities in the state of Illinois,” he told Capitol News Illinois on Wednesday. In December, Gov. JB Pritzker urged a “careful” approach to next year’s budget after his budget office projected a $891 million deficit. Omar Aquino, the chief Senate sponsor of the proposal, said he hopes the program, if passed, can be scaled up in the future. The bills, which were introduced Wednesday, await substantive committee assignments, a necessary step before they can be voted on by the full legislature.

After failing to pass a child tax credit last year, advocates returned to Springfield last week to propose a scaled back version of the policy which they say would still reduce child poverty and spur economic growth. The proposal, contained in House Bill 4917 and Senate Bill 3329, would create a $300 per-child refundable tax credit for families who earn less than the state’s median income—about $75,000 per year for couples and $50,000 for single parents. The policy would cost the state about $300 million, according to Erion Malasi, Illinois policy director for the Economic Security Project, an advocacy group backing the proposal. A January report from the Illinois Economic Policy Institute, a union-backed think tank, found that a $300 tax credit would cost the state about $471 million, although that estimate doesn’t account for cost reductions in other state programs, like the earned income tax credit or the supplemental nutrition program for women,

Rezin said a third bill, which is still in development, would “require social media platforms to create an identity verification process.” The senator compared social media to the tobacco and opiate industries, saying people cannot trust them to regulate themselves. She also said Illinoisans cannot wait for the federal government to take action. “Parents are mad,” Rezin said. “They want us to act and pass legislation to protect their children. They don’t care if it’s a federal issue or a state issue.”

Copays take effect for immigrant health programs as cost estimates continue to decline Expected program expenditures have declined by $60 million since August
By Jerry Nowicki Capitol News Illinois
Cost estimates for a pair of state-funded health care programs serving certain low-income noncitizens have declined by tens of millions of dollars in recent months as the state rolled out new copay and co-insurance requirements earlier this month. The Health Benefits for Immigrant Adults and Health Benefits for Immigrant Seniors programs provide state-funded Medicaid-like benefits to individuals aged 42 and over who would otherwise be eligible for the federal low-income health care program if not for their immigration status. That includes those in the U.S. without legal permission and those who have obtained a green card but not yet completed a five-year waiting period to earn federal benefits. Individuals who have applied for asylum or sanctuary in the U.S.—which includes many of the more than 34,000 migrants bused to Illinois from Texas in the last year-and-a-half—more likely qualify for other preexisting state or federal benefits. Advocates for the programs contend they are not only lifesaving but also cost-saving in the long-run as they give individuals access to preventative care rather than making them reliant upon expensive emer-
gency room visits to treat conditions that worsen due to lack of care. Opponents of the programs, namely Republican lawmakers, have criticized them as an expensive enticement for people illegally residing in the U.S. to relocate to Illinois. The programs, originally launched for those aged 65 and older in 2020 then expanded in waves, became a sticking point in state budget negotiations last year when Gov. JB Pritzker’s administration projected their single-year costs to exceed $1 billion. But current estimates now project the programs will cost $773 million in the current fiscal year. Those estimates, however, have declined by $60 million since August, the month following the Pritzker administration’s initial announcement of certain cost-saving measures. Cost-saving measures Ultimately, the contentious budget negotiations ended last year with lawmakers allocating $500 million in funding to the program from the state’s General Revenue Fund and giving the Pritzker administration authority to limit program enrollment and costs. The administration in turn paused enrollment in HBIA as of July 1 and in HBIS as of
Nov. 6. The two programs now collectively serve about 69,000 people aged 42 and older, and enrollment remains paused. In January, the administration also began moving enrollees to the state’s Medicaid managed care program, which connects individuals with private insurers who contract with the state to oversee routine and follow-up health care. The Department of Healthcare and Family Services, which administers the programs, expects the managed care transition to be complete in April. After months of delays, the department announced that copays and co-insurance for certain services went live Feb. 1. “Most services covered by the HBIA and HBIS programs … will continue to be free for customers, including primary care visits, prescription medications and vaccinations at a pharmacy or doctor’s office,” the department said in a news release. “The new copays and co-insurance will apply to the use of non-emergency hospital or surgical center services, like nonemergent elective surgeries, physical therapy and lab work.” Enrollees may see a $250 copay per nonemergency inpatient hospitalization and a 10 percent charge for nonemergency outpatient services or care received from ambulatory

providers by MCOs, but the providers are required to collect them from patients, creating an administrative burden. As well, they warned that individuals may choose to defer certain “elective” procedures, such as a colonoscopy, due to the copay requirement, potentially undermining the program’s preventative care goals. “We urge the Department of Healthcare and Family Services and Managed Care Organizations to reconsider implementing these charges, which will generate a relatively small amount of money but can be the difference between life and death for low-income Illinoisans,” Siegel said in a statement. Costs declining The programs’ cost estimates, meanwhile, have been on the decline amid the administration’s savings measures. In September, an HFS analysis estimated the programs’ 12-month cost to be $832 million for the fiscal year that ends June 30. But the department’s latest estimate, published Jan. 9, now projects the programs will cost $773 million. In total, the state has spent nearly $330 million collectively on the programs in the first six months of the fiscal year, per the January estimate. The department’s data shows average monthly costs for the programs decreased steadily between August and December, from $72.7 million
to $45.3 million. When the state announced its enrollment caps, it noted per-enrollee costs were higher among the HBIA and HBIS populations “due to more prevalent, untreated chronic conditions and higher hospital costs.” With the caps in place, the program is now populated with individuals who’ve been receiving routine care, rather than a steady stream of new enrollees who are more expensive to insure. Thus, the per-patient monthly costs have also declined. In August, per-patient costs reached $1,232 for enrolled individuals aged 65 and older, $1,295 for those aged 55-64, and $844 for those aged 42-54. In December, those numbers declined to $778, $805 and $541, respectively. Advocates pointed to those declines as evidence that the programs are accomplishing their intended goal of replacing costly emergency care with more cost-efficient preventative services. “While there are several potential explanations, cost decreases in the HBIA and HBIS programs can be an indication that enrollees are receiving more preventative care and therefore needing less intensive, expensive care,” Siegel said. “However, the implementation of copays could threaten these gains as enrollees are dissuaded from receiving this cost-saving preventative care.”
Day in court postponed for former lawmaker who checked into hospital on eve of corruption trial

surgical treatment centers. It’s a major difference from the federally funded Medicaid program, which does not require copays. Whether individuals are subject to those copays and co-insurance requirements will depend on if they have already been enrolled in managed care and which managed care organization is serving them, according to the department. The state reimburses managed care organizations at a specified rate, giving the MCOs authority to charge copays or co-insurance without requiring them to do so. CountyCare in Cook County, where most program enrollees are located, is waiving all copays and coinsurance requirements, per the department. The department announced it no longer plans to issue a copay for emergency room visits. The Healthy Illinois Campaign, a statewide coalition of immigrant and health care advocates, has pushed for an expansion of the program and fought any efforts to limit it or install cost-sharing. The group’s director, Tovia Siegel, praised the administration’s decision not to charge a copay for emergency room care but said the other copays “place a significant burden on both providers and patients, limiting access to healthcare for Illinois’ immigrant community.” The copays, advocates noted, are charged to medical
On what was supposed to be the third morning of a weeklong corruption trial of former State Sen. Sam McCann, the onetime third-party candidate for governor instead video-conferenced into U.S. District Judge Colleen Lawless’ courtroom from his hospital bed. McCann, who checked himself into Missouri Baptist Hospital in St. Louis after not feeling well over the weekend of Feb. 3-4, told the judge he didn’t know what medications he was on and didn’t want to say anything while drugged that might mislead her. “I do not know that I can put a coherent thought together,” McCann said, eyes halfclosed on the Zoom screen. “Well, Mr. McCann, you are coherently speaking to me right now,” Lawless responded. But the judge ultimately postponed the trial until this week, opting to forgo more incremental status hearings like the five that had already taken place since McCann failed to show up for his trial on Feb. 5. Assistant U.S. Attorney Timothy Bass voiced his concern that by delaying the trial further, it would “reward” McCann. The former lawmaker was already granted a 10-week postponement when he suddenly fired his court-appointed lawyers the morning his trial was scheduled to begin in late November, and announced he’d be representing himself. “It’s our belief...this entire situation is self-created by the defendant,” Bass told Lawless.
“He’s continuing to lie to you. He knows exactly what medications he’s on.” McCann tried to interject on the Zoom meeting broadcast into the courtroom. “That’s not true,” he said. Lawless said she understood Bass’ position that a delay in the trial was the outcome McCann wanted but said she didn’t believe it was “in the interest of justice” to force McCann to show up to trial beginning Feb. 8 after having been in the hospital for several days. Bass had subpoenaed the hospital for McCann’s medical records and reiterated that most tests McCann underwent came back normal. Bass was careful to not reveal any personal medical information in open court, though McCann told the judge on Feb. 6 that he was “hooked up to nitroglycerin and saline.” All signs indicated McCann would be discharged on Feb. 7, Bass said. Although Bass had suggested McCann be confined to his home after leaving the hospital—citing his unemployed status—and asked Lawless to check that McCann had no more firearms in his possession, the judge declined. “I’m not asking the defendant any further questions while he’s in the hospital,” she said, instead saying Bass could file a motion to request both of those things. McCann spent eight years in the General Assembly, most of that time as a Republican. But in 2018 he left the GOP he believed wasn’t conservative
enough under then-Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner. He then established the “Conservative Party” in Illinois and ran for governor on a third-party platform backed by organized labor—one of Rauner’s major foes. Two years prior, McCann had gone toe-to-toe with Rauner in a battle over his Senate seat but won against the well-funded candidate the governor had backed against him. During those election battles, McCann allegedly “engaged in a scheme to convert more than $200,000 in contributions and donations made to his campaign committees to pay himself and make personal purchases,” according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney’s office at the time of his indictment. McCann allegedly used some of that money to pay his mortgage and personal debts, buy personal vehicles, and even paid himself. In addition to spending roughly $60,000 on a truck and SUV, McCann also allegedly purchased two recreational vehicles with campaign funds. McCann sought to use those RVs as part of a scheme to channel campaign funds to himself through an Ohio RV rental business, according to the feds. McCann also allegedly spent $50,000 in campaign funds on credit card payments related to a family vacation in Colorado and charges from Apple iTunes, Amazon, a skeet and trap club, Cabela’s, Scheels, Best Buy, a gun store and cash withdrawals.

Sheriff’s Office releases statement on House Bill 4603 tain requirements concerning vehicle lamps. • Excessive tint. • Defective mirrors. • An obstructed windshield or defective windshield wipers. • Defective bumpers. • Excessive exhaust. • Failure of the vehicle operator to wear a safety belt. The proposed bill also provides that no evidence discovered or obtained as the result of a stop in violation of these provisions, including, but not limited to, evidence discovered or obtained with the operator’s consent, shall be admissible in any trial, hearing, or other proceeding. Preempts home rule powers. Traffic enforcement is one
of many important functions law enforcement is tasked with. Traffic enforcement keeps roadways safe, reduces crime and saves lives. This bill limits Illinois law enforcement deputies’ and officers’ ability to provide safe roads for the motoring public and safety for the community as a whole. On January 31, Rep. Slaughter contacted the Illinois Sheriffs’ Association (ISA) advising he was not going to move the bill in this session, citing the bill was written significantly broader than he intended. Rep. Slaughter credited the ISA and its members for contacting him with issues this proposed bill
would cause and wants to engage with law enforcement leaders on future bills. The Sheriff’s Office encourages the community to communicate with their local legislative leaders about proposed legislation and what it means to the safety of their respectiove communities. The Sheriff’s Office will continue to work with legislative partners, along with the Illinois Sheriffs’ Association and Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police, to educate lawmakers on the effects bills like these have. The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office will continue to ensure the safety of the community isn’t jeopardized.
Deputies locate stolen car, arrest three occupants of vehicle
Sheriff’s deputies recovered a stolen vehicle and arrested the car’s three occupants. On February 9, at approximately 2:30 a.m. a Lake County Sheriff’s Sergeant was on patrol in the area of Route 41 and Casimir Pulaski Drive in North Chica-

was shattered and the steering column was damaged. Further investigation revealed the vehicle had been stolen moments earlier from an apartment complex in the 500 block of Lakehurst Road, Waukegan. Sheriff’s deputies arrested and transported the
