Sixty four agencies are suing the state for $100 million. They've got contracts that say they're owed that money, but Illinois hasn't paid up: The funding is caught in the prolonged stalemate between lawmakers and the governor.
One of those agencies is the Illinois Coalition Against Sexual Assault.
NPR Illinois' Amanda Vinicky spoke with its director -- Polly Poskin -- about the lawsuit.
The lawsuit was filed last week in Cook County.
