Ted joined Tom Miller of WJPF to talk about the details of Gov. Pritzker’s proposed $52 billion budget, why the state is struggling now that federal covid dollars have run out, the controversy surrounding Tier 2 government pensions, why Illinois’ expensive education system fails to teach children to read, the outrageous demands of the Chicago Teachers Union, and more.
Probably going to run for Gov.
Another state office that could see a changing of the guard sooner than one may expect is Secretary of State.
If Jesse White is re-elected as Secretary of State, he could resign before his term expires, and someone would be appointed to fill that position.
He is 83 now.
Our next Governor. Pritzger et al are thinking how much money they’ve just wasted.
