August 12, 2005 In This Issue:
ICPR staff and hard working interns are updating the website with new data and features. Here are just a few of the new things you can find on ilcampaign.org: . The federal indictments against Stuart Levine for alleged shakedowns of Teachers' Retirement System vendors (and here's the May indictment against Levine for alleged extortion of Health Facilities Planning Board applicants[TK]) . The federal indictment against Chicago Park District employees for allegedly taking hundreds of thousands in bribes to hand out millions in contracts. . Our blog has RSS feeds, for those of you who want to be automatically notified when new posts go up. Click here to learn more about RSS feeds. And that doesn't begin to touch on campaign finance reports from the first half of 2005. New profiles of the largest donors, new reports on fundraising by all 177 legislators, six statewide constitutionals and even some declared candidates for the 2006 primaries. So much to see, and so little time. Go now!
