State Week: Veterans Home Outbreak Review; Pritzker Unveils Energy Plan

On this episode, the panel discusses a new report that recaps last year's deadly COVID-19 outbreak at the LaSalle Veterans Home,  calling the response at the state-run facility "inefficient, reactive and chaotic."    

Gov. Pritzker has offered up a large package aimed at the state's power industry.   Meanwhile,  the governor has reversed course on a campaign pledge. 

Steve Daniels of Crain's Chicago Business joins us.
