Press Release: Illinois Democratic Congressional Delegation Vows to Protect Illinois Families and Communities- U.S. Rep. Mike Quigley

A statement from the delegation reads, in part, “These unconstitutional federal funding cuts will immediately raise costs for Illinois families and destroy critical services that pay our teachers, support first responders, house homeless veterans, save lives through medical research, and so much more. We will not stand for these illegal efforts to withhold funding from Illinoisans, who already pay nearly $6 in taxes for every $1 we receive in direct support from the federal government.”

Protect Illinois Families and Communities? Shouldn’t they have been doing that all along? Isn’t that why they were elected? To say that now implies that they haven’t been protecting Illinois families and communities!

Hello, Indiana!

Translated- “ Don’t try to trim down bloated, overfunded social service programs that for the most part benefit people that pay O taxes on anything .”.
