Chicago - Illinois lawmakers may be getting a pay raise even though the state faces a major financial crisis.
 
Under the budget presented by Gov. Pat Quinn last month, state lawmakers will get a $600 pay raise.
The governor will see his own salary go up to $179,100. That's an increase of $1,600.
State Rep. Kent Gaffney has introduced a bill to rescind the raises.
