In trip to Asia, Sen. Duckworth touts Illinois as an electric vehicle hub – WGLT (NPR at ISU)

This meeting comes as Illinois continues to lose out on battery plants to neighboring states. General Motors is building a $2.3 billion battery plant in Ohio, while Ford is partnering with South Korean company SK Innovation to build three battery mega-factories in Kentucky and Tennessee. And last month, Samsung and Dutch automobile company Stellantis announced that they’re building a $2.5 billion plant an hour east of Illinois’ border in central Indiana. Samsung had previously considered a site in Normal.

Please pay your Illinois property tax Duckie.

$174k a year you earn. I earned $36k last year. I am a UK war veteran (Falklands War 1982) and get diddly squat.

You really are a piece of work. Useless as a politician.

How they hell did we get here.

The end is nigh, written in the Scriptures.
