- There's simply no job growth under Pritzker. Illinois has created just 15,500 net new jobs since 2019. Nation's 4th-worst job creation. Florida, meanwhile, is up a whopping 1,115,000 net new jobs. Via @Wirepoints on @MorningAnswer wirepoints.org/there-simply-a… #twill @GovPritzker

- .@GovPritzker dissed Indiana when talking about #Illinois' separatist counties. Said IN is a “low-wage” state, “doesn't protect workers.” IN's performance vs. Pritzker's IL? Finances, population, jobs, taxation all far better. Via @Wirepoints wirepoints.org/illinois-shoul… #twill
- Not a single student can do math at grade level in 53 #Illinois schools. For reading, it’s 30 schools. Not 1 single student. Education data from @ISBEnews It's yet another indictment of the state’s educational system. Via @Wirepoints wirepoints.org/not-a-single-s… #twill #SchoolChoice
- #Chicago resident nails it: "Are y’all lying to us?" she asked the City Council. "The budget shows $400 M spent on...illegal immigrants...and the city [has] a $235 M deficit...you overspent to pay for people who haven't paid any taxes." via @fox32news. City deficit may hit $1
