BLOOMINGTON – State Rep. Dan Brady and other lawmakers are preparing to return to Springfield next week for the fall veto session.
Brady (R-Bloomington) told WJBC’s Scott Miller there are several areas lawmakers will likely cover.

“The big vaping issue and there’s legislation down there and I think there will be some type of action taken,” said Brady.
Brady said another focus could be the consolidation of police and fire pension funds.
“I don’t know with the magnitude of that plan that there will be a vote, but I want to learn more and make sure that it is the right thing to do,” Brady added.
Earlier this month, Gov. JB Pritzker unveiled a plan proposed by the Pension Consolidation Feasibility Task Force to combine 649 suburban and downstate police and fire pension funds into two separate funds. The plan does not include the city of Chicago or the state’s five pension funds for university employees, state employees, lawmakers, judges and teachers.
Lawmakers return to Springfield Monday for three days, then again for three days starting Nov. 12.
