Observers have chided Illinois Democrats for introducing the legislation in such slapdash and rapid fashion, apparently seeking to use their supermajority status in Springfield to ram such a sweeping proposal through with minimal debate in the closing hours of a legislative session. The rapid spin-up of the 1,000-page proposal has left even those well-schooled in state and federal constitutional law doubtful of their ability to digest and interpret the proposal, as yet.
IL Democrats are very worried about imagined Constitutional violations by the federal government actually enforcing immigration law.
But these Constitution zealots are more than happy to ignore the Constitution when trying to pass a wealth tax.
Strange.

A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
