Lawsuits against state can be filed in only Cook, Sangamon counties under measure signed by Gov. J.B. Pritzker – Chicago Tribune*

Democrats who supported the legislation said it was necessary to prevent people with a grievance against the state from selecting the county in which to file a lawsuit based on where they think they can get a favorable ruling. Supporters also said the measure will conserve resources for the attorney general’s office, which represents the state in court.

With each passing day Pritzker is moving us closer to pondering Thomas Jefferson’s comment, “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”

This is the tyranny that the founding fathers warned you about.

And the lawsuits will be filed 3…..2……1.
Wasting more tax dollars fighting unconstitutional laws put in place by the tyrants in the Illinois legislature. Raoul & Pritzger would put Abbott and Costello to shame

That is Illinois today. Land and Laws made by criminals for the criminal.

Just like the proposal to bring approval voting to the state and another way to keep the Democrat criminals in control.

Unconstitutional on its face — denying the residents of 100 Illinois counties the ability to defend their constitutional rights is right on brand for the filthy sewer rat shit-bags of the IL Democrat Party.

Absolutely correct, the saddest part is the only people who actually care are the people trying to change the bunghole of the Midwest that is Illinois
