Pritzker could have used his veto power when the regular session ended to address the numerous bills that will make it harder for those living, working and paying taxes in Illinois. Instead, he was a rubber stamp for Illinois’ Democratic majority, signing 433 of 436 bills into law. Of those 436 bills that passed both chambers, 59 were introduced by Republicans.
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.
