Illinois Democrats just handed Pritzker his 8th budget and it keeps growing. From $40B when he took office to $56B now. Illinois does not have a revenue problem. Springfield has a spending problem. Illinois families deserve better. #ILSenate #ILpolitics

Anna, mocking it doesn’t change it.
When Ken Griffin moved Citadel out of Illinois, we didn’t “win”, we lost jobs, tax base, and one of the biggest economic engines this state had.
That’s what happens under your boss JB Pritzker, you drive out the people and companies that actually produce, then pretend it’s a joke, shows how tone deaf and the lack of business acumen you posses.
Illinois isn’t trending up. People and capital are leaving, and everyone knows why.
You can laugh it off, but the damage is real.👇🏼
While Chicago students struggle to read and test scores remain abysmal, the Chicago Teachers Union and failed mayor, @Brandon4Chicago, are focused on political protests instead of classrooms. CTU even pushed to cancel school and turn May Day into a “civic action” event, with students encouraged to participate instead of learning. Shutting down schools and treating protests like field trips is a complete failure of leadership. Enough is enough.

Parents across Illinois are asking for school choice loud and clear. But under Governor J.B. Pritzker, their voices are being ignored while powerful teachers unions call the shots. Every child deserves access to the education that works best for them, not a system controlled by special interests. It is time to start listening to parents, not politics.

Chicago’s budget has skyrocketed 62% since 2019, rising more than twice as fast as other major cities. Brandon Johnson and the Democrats are driving taxpayers into the ground with reckless spending and failed priorities. Chicago deserves better leadership.

JB Pritzker and Illinois Democrats are choosing to release convicted murderers into our neighborhoods, instead of having them deported. Illinoisans should demand an end to these dangerous policies. #tooextreme
The sanctuary state of Illinois RELEASED this convicted murderer into the public without notifying ICE.
Under Governor Pritzker's leadership: criminal illegal aliens are given freedom while Americans face the consequences for failed sanctuary policies.
ICE has since apprehended this convicted murder and will remove him from the country.
Brandon Johnson and JB Pritzker refuse to take responsibility for their failed policies that have empowered criminals and handcuffed law enforcement.
9 killed and 52 wounded over the weekend- that’s not Indiana that’s failed Illinois leadership.
Courtesy of JB Pritzker, who promised to never sign maps drawn by politicians and then flip flopped and signed the most rigged election maps in the country. #flipflopper #canttrust
Illinois families just got slammed with another round of sky-high property tax bills. Meanwhile, Pritzker and the Democrats skipped tax relief in a record breaking $55 billion budget. Working people get squeezed while Springfield keeps spending.
