I Just Proposed Something that already exists in Illinois?!? Seriously!


Doug Finke from the SJ-R found out that the program I proposed, unfortunately exists.  Back to the drawing board, I guess?

From the SJ-R:
A couple of weeks ago, Democratic state treasurer candidate MIKE FRERICHS released a plan to boost agriculture assistance offered by the office.
He said he would create a new program offering low-cost loans for things like solar pumps, small wind farms, energy conservation and other eco-friendly things. 
“What Senator Frerichs is proposing already exists in the treasurer’s office,” said Mary Frances Bragiel, spokeswoman for Treasurer DAN RUTHERFORD. 
She said green programs were consolidated in both the Business Invest and Ag Invest programs.
