Governor Quinn Signs Legislation to Save MAP Grants
Covers Second Semester Funding for 138,000 Illinois College Students

Governor Pat Quinn today signed legislation to cover critical second-semester MAP funding for nearly 138,000 eligible students. Senate Bill 1180 appropriates full funding for the need-based student aid program, allowing both students and colleges to plan for the Spring 2010 college term.

Governor Quinn and the Illinois Legislature could have found the funding if they eliminated the drug program at Sheridan Correctional Center. Governor Quinn should let Sheridan Correctional Center become a "regular" prison as it was designed when built. Sheridan Correctional Center is not reducing recidivism to any significant degree that the regular prison experience would produce.
