Yes it is. At least for I-80 west from the I-294 split. Was there just last weekend and both west bound and east bound charges were logged to my new Sunpass Pro and deducted from my Sunpass account. I vaguely recall reading on the Illinois web site that the Chicago Skyway doesn't take EZ-pass and therefore not Sunpass Pro, but I could be mistaken about that. But to answer your question, EZ-Pass is accepted from Illinois all the way to New York plus a number of various east coast states. I think all of the states, just like Florida, have their own independent turnpike/tollway authorities. And all the the midwest, northeast, and now Florida have a partnership with EZ-Pass for the collection of tolls. So even if you get an EZ-Pass, you are actually getting it through a state authority (e.g. IL, OH, PA, NY, FL).
