Under Executive Order 15-10, Rutan-exempt employees will be
published on the Illinois Transparency and Accountability Portal (ITAP)
website, finally giving the people of Illinois a way to easily find
the state’s political hires.
“The IDOT hiring scandal proved the public deserves a way to easily
find out who are all the political appointees in state government.”
Gov. Rauner said. “We need to restore faith in state government if
we expect the people of Illinois to help the government in its
mission. This Executive Order is a first step towards earning back
the people’s trust.”
The Executive Order also instructs the Illinois Department of
Central Management Services (CMS) to assist units of local
government in providing information about their employees for
posting on the ITAP website.

“Taxpayers at every level of government deserve to know more about
how their money is being spent,” Gov. Rauner added. “The action we
are taking today will help build a more open and accountable
government.”
