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.
This is HB4211 if one wishes to support it by creating a witness slip. It would likely reduce gas prices by about $0.20 per gallon. Filing a witness slip does not require that you appear or that you provide a rational for your support of the bill.

The money you save will be your own!
Pritzker will never do that. He needs the gas tax to fund illegals, fraud, and far left policy spending. The gas tax is supposed to be used on roads, not left political spending. IL roads are in terrible shape.
What they need to do is REPEAL the automatic increases and make the legislature vote on every increase again.
But will that pause cause the roads to go to shit and ruin the smooth as ice roads we have now ? Sent from the garage getting wheels aligned ,every 3 months
