Gov. J.B. Pritzker will outline his vision for the state today. This will be the first time since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic that he is presenting from the Illinois House Chambers to a joint session of state representatives and senators.
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker will outline his vision for the state Wednesday, in a combined state of the state and budget address. For the first time since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, he’ll present from the Illinois House chambers to a joint session of state representatives and senators.
Mendoza said Pritzker should put at least $1 billion toward the state’s emergency reserves and toward pensions. But it may be unrealistic to fathom Pritzker failing to introduce new signature programs. Every politician wants to make his or her mark, and Pritzker is no exception, particularly as he has gained more attention on a national level, is embarking on the start of a second term and has wider-than-ever supermajorities of Democrats in the General Assembly.
“We all know that nothing’s free,” said McCombie, who is in her first months as a legislative leader. “The intent seems good, but ‘How do we get there?’ is always the question.”
