Description: In early July 2019, the State of Illinois enacted a package of legislation to fund transportation capital projects, water infrastructure, natural resources and open space projects, and the construction of schools, affordable housing, and other facilities. Appropriations for the capital package are found in multiple pieces of legislation that were passed together at the end of the General Assembly’s spring session. The majority of the funded projects and programs are located within one piece of legislation, Public Act 101-0029, which is publicly available as a PDF. This script takes the enrolled Public Act and turns it into a searchable table of the projects and programs appropriated in the legislation.
