| HOUSE RESOLUTION
|
| 2 |
| WHEREAS, We believe that AMTRAK is an insufficiently |

| 5 |
| by air and automobile between Chicago and Springfield and other |
| 6 |
| cities where more economical AMTRAK service is available; |
| 7 |
| therefore, be it
|
| 8 |

| 10 |

| 12 |

| 13 |
| and the following cities: Springfield, Bloomington, Macomb, |
| 14 |
| and Urbana-Champaign; and be it further
|
| 15 |
| RESOLVED, That the Auditor General has discretion to |
| 16 |
| determine which large agencies are to be studied, except that |
| 17 |
| at least one of the agencies studied must be headed by each of |
| 18 |
| the State's Constitutional Officers; and be it further
|
| 19 |
| RESOLVED, That the study shall take specific notice of |
| 20 |
| reimbursable expenses for travel between Chicago and the |
| 21 |
