Gov. Rauner Decries Quinn's "Political Games" On Executive Orders
(CBS) -- Governor Bruce Rauner has rescinded seven executive orders former Governor Pat Quinn issued in his final week in office. WBBM's Mike Krauser reports, the dislike the two men had for one another during the campaign seems to be continuing.
The eleventh hour executive orders included one requiring Governor Rauner to disclose his full income tax returns and another requiring a $10-an-hour minimum wage for state vendors. WBBM asked the governor about the reversals Saturday at an event on the West Side.

"Pat Quinn, since the election, has been playing political games and doing bad manipulations and putting cronies in bad positions and doing things more for political manipulation than really good," Rauner said. "We're undoing everything he has done since the election and then we'll go back and make the right decisions and do things the right way."
As Rauner sees it, Quinn was just trying to settle political scores.
