Center for Municipal Finance's Amanda Kass Discusses Municipal Pension Shortfalls in Illinois

Amanda Kass, assistant director at the Center for Municipal Finance, was featured in various outlets discussing the unfunded pension liabilities in municipalities in Illinois, which may result in the state withholding funds as it has for Harvey, Illinois.

"According to an analysis by Amanda Kass, a researcher at the University of Chicago, there are 74 police or fire pension funds in towns across the state that are as similarly underfunded as Harvey," Paris Schutz of Chicago Tonight said.
