Gov.-elect J.B. Pritzker announced his ninth and tenth transition committees this week, including one on business issues and economic development. He also reiterated his committment to raising Illinois' hourly minimum wage to $15.

Beyond that: Illinois turned 200, Pritzker's victory set another record, and we remember veteran Statehouse newsman Burnell Heinecke.
