Governor's Office of Management and Budget made the deficit projection on Nov. 1 .

The budget includes about $750 million in tax hikes needed to balance a $53 billion spending plan.

Republicans in both chambers voted against the current budget, including $180 million for migrants.

Gov. Pritzker has been pressured by the Chicago Teachers Union to set aside more than $1 billion in funds for the city’s public school system.

Republican Sen. Chapin Rose of Mahomet, one of the Senate GOP 's budget negotiators, says Democrats need to come up with a solution that doesn't include raising taxes.
