IDPH filed a repeat emergency rule last night to extend the school mask mandate, regardless of the ongoing court case. The refiled rule would force every school district not named in the suit to enforce masks. Republicans on JCAR object to IDPH refilling during suit.

FINNALY! A co-equal branch of #Illinois government is heard from. This is exactly why we have three branches of government. Checks and balances. Long overdue in Illinois regarding #COVID. @GovPritzker cannot continue to use emergency executive orders. Get the GA envolved. #twill
Replying to @MarkMaxwellTV
BREAKING: JCAR votes to object to the mask rule. A bipartisan panel of lawmakers deal Pritzker’s school mask mandate a defeat in the legislature while it languishes in legal limbo before appellate court. Dems Mike Halpin, Fran Hurley, Curtis Tarver break with Pritzker.

.@EricHolder, @BarackObama, and Democrats across the country don’t care about ‘fair maps’ and will say whatever they need to in order to gain power.   We’re calling out their gerrymandering hypocrisy.

Imagine if we had Fair Maps in Illinois. Then we wouldn’t have to speculate about whether one politician was “a fan” of another, and whether or not they drew maps for political retribution.
Yeah. Don Harmon and Chris Welch are big Lipinski fans 🤣 Also this is just the first draft.

Illinois Democrat legislators will stop at nothing to retain their corrupt grip on power in Springfield and Washington DC.  The Democratic Congressional map was drawn by politicians to protect incumbent Democrats and disenfranchise voters throughout the State of Illinois.

Rep @ryan_spain (R-Peoria) continues to point at doors at press conferences about redistricting, this time @GovPritzker’s office. In 2018, candidate Pritzker said he wanted an independent commission to draw maps, with or w/o a constitutional amendment. He’s since taken that back

When it comes to transparency, flaw is function for Illinois Democrats.

Note the computer screen with the Democrats redistricting website. Each link to a previous public hearing is an error.
Unlike our friends on the other side of the aisle, we don't treat our map room with the secrecy of a grand jury.

During the four years of the Civil War, the confederates never got closer to Washington than Fort Stevens. Until today, when insurrectionist supporters of @realDonaldTrump paraded through the U.S. Capitol Building carrying the Confederate battle flag.

It is a sad day in America when a mob mentality fueled by President Trump can interrupt the foundational functions of our sacred government bodies through lawlessness. I condemn all involved in this illegal occupation of the Capitol and any violent acts surrounding it. STOP NOW

Where are all of my Democrat colleagues? The Madigan corruption story broke this morning. Most have declined to comment or are side stepping... it’s time to LEAD. Stand up to Mike Madigan for once! It’s time for you to ask for him to resign. Anything less is not acceptable.

I don’t think the Governor’s recommendation for business owners to visit high-covid case hospitals to speak firsthand with healthcare workers is a good idea. Those workers have important jobs to focus on and hospitals are not allowing visitors.

This is outrageous. How did we go from “lock her up” to “set him free”? Illinois is still suffering from the tremendous damage done by Rod Blagojevich.
BREAKING - @ABC News has learned President Trump expected to commute the sentenced of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich via multiple senior level sources - more to come @KFaulders @vlasto & me

We have just one more day on the legislative calendar for 2019. Our top priority for immediate action should be ethics reform for elected officials. #twill
