Chicago’s southern suburb of Crestwood is jockeying into position ahead of a raft of new casino developments that are set to emanate across the state of Illinois. Following Governor JB Pritzker rubber stamping a $45bn ‘ Rebuild Illinois ’ action plan at the start of the month, the village is seeking proposals from investors and casino.
New Casinos Coming to Illinois
Earlier this year, Illinois passed a major gambling expansion. The state legalized sports betting and approved six new licenses for casinos. That’s on top of the video gambling machines that we’ve had in our state for nearly a decade.
Supporters of expanded gambling say that it’ll bring in lots of money for state and local governments. And this past summer, Governor J.B. Pritzker said that the proposals he signed into law would help fund state spending.
Today, we talk about three of the six casinos that are being planned in Illinois. Starting with Danville, about a half hour east of Champaign and close to the Indiana border.

IL Museum Returns Objects To First Nations
In the 1920s and 30s, a University of Chicago anthropologist came back from his field work in Australia with objects from aboriginal communities. Those objects were added to the Illinois State Museum in Springfield’s collection.

Now, nearly 90 years later, they’ll return to Australia as a part of the Australian Government’s Return of Cultural Heritage Project. The Illinois State Museum is the first in the world to participate in the initiative to give Australian indigenous objects back to the first nations communities they came from.

The Ethical Conundrum of Anne and Ed Burke
For decades, Anne and Ed Burke have been one of the most politically powerful couples in Illinois.
Later this month, Anne Burke will become the Illinois Supreme Court’s Chief Justice. Meanwhile, Ed is the longest-serving alderman in Chicago history.
In February, Alderman Ed Burke was re-elected despite a federal charge of attempted extortion. And this summer, he was named in a 14-count federal racketeering and bribery indictment.
Despite the Alderman’s legal trouble, Justice Burke’s time on the Supreme Court has been generally free of controversy. Now, a new investigation from WBEZ finds that Justice Burke heard several cases on the Supreme Court even though they involved clients of her husband’s law firm.
State Politics Reporter Dave McKinney reported this story for WBEZ.
Justice Anne Burke and Alderman Ed Burke have had a lot of power in Illinois for a long time.
