Yes, both sides. I’d say best bipartisanship effort we’ve seen in Illinois since Gov Ryan.

Nice to see that JB is willing to work with the other side to get these things done. I also have to credit Durkin and Brady for willing to compromise as well.

Rauner had his chance and was a failure by every objective measure.
100% and I’ve always considered Durkin and Brady reasonable conservatives. Rauner was extreme and had no idea what he was doing (or maybe chaos was his goal all along)

For another 17 months at least. You might have to move out of the country after that

And Madigan and his troops have a total grasp of how to run a state?? Can you really not see what a mess the Democrats have created in this state?

Open borders/sanctuary state/8th month abortion/green new deal/slavery repairations may play well in Illinois but not nationwide. None of the circus clowns in the dem party are ready for the adult's table.

Tried to get the spending under control... but clearly he was ahead of his time, we will need someone like him after the state files for bankruptcy to get that mess cleaned up... the people you support have put the state on the brink of failure and the joke of the country.
