Happy New Year, Illinois! After the challenges and lessons in 2020 and 2021, I am hopeful for our future ahead.

@disabilityscoop Let's trust and commend Wisconsin DHS for bringing in more support for their teams so they can focus on client care while guard does other tasks to keep centers running

Disability rights are human rights.

This #InternationalDayofPersonswithDisabilities and always, my administration is doing everything we can to make our state a place where people of every ability can thrive - from ensuring fair wages to building accessible spaces.

Last night, in collaboration with Community Alternatives we were thrilled to assist over 30 families in getting their child on the PUNS database! @ELC_EduIL @BhardwajMary @MeganClarkeELC @RickyMedina86

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

Illinoisans of every ability deserve opportunities to engage in meaningful work with standard pay.

So today, I signed an executive order banning state agencies from entering contracts with vendors who pay workers with disabilities a sub-minimum wage. https://t.co/WaAlZzVLHI
