IL ranks 48th in population growth, 46th in private-sector job growth, and 44th in wage growth since 2018.

We have the highest combined state and local taxes, and the lowest bond rating.

After 8 years, you'd think @GovPritzker would have realized his policies are failing and change course.

Instead, he's gearing up to run for President and take his bad ideas nationwide.

We don’t need a poll to guess that 100% of the American think it should be illegal for lawmakers to trade stocks on insider information. We already know that an overwhelming percentage of the people want voter ID…we know that the majority want term limits…not at all surprising that none of these things will happen..

Why does the treasury make pennies?? We all know the answer, it’s because government does what it does without ever thinking about the change in circumstance…by my estimation, a gov program continues for about 100 years after it’s become pointless..like daylight savings

Has there been one notable person who was “outraged” by the Jussie “hate crime” who has now been vocally apologetic or taken any responsibility in any way? Or even expressed anger about being fooled?
