Durbin is taking the rare step of weighing in on the states handling of a health insurance rate increase request by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois. The state’s leading insurer is suggesting price increases for 2017 ranging from 23 percent to 45 percent for individual health plans. Durbin, the state’s senior senator, says the company could be more competitive and reduce costs, and he’s pressing state regulators to take action. (AP Photo/Lauren Victoria Burke File)
