Ask Mr. Pritzker where his kids went to school. Was it unionized? Were the schools even in Illinois?

Pritzker says that the scholarship program that cost 75 Million is a bad idea but will spend MORE than that on trying to get elected. He should write a check to the public school system instead of making millions of yard signs and TV ads we will be bombarded for the next 7 months. Same goes for Rauner!!
