With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too
Debate over the sweeping legislation swirled in January, and there were few in Southern Illinois who came out in direct support. Local legislators and those in law enforcement argued that the elimination of cash bail especially would make Southern Illinois less safe. Their tune hasn’t changed much in a month’s time.
Audio and summary 
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.
Darren Bailey for GOVERNOR!
100 county states attorneys opposed this legislation. There are 102 counties in the state. 99% of the elected states attorneys say no. Cook County/Chicago is all for it. Sheepdog Pritzger signs the bill into law. A governor for the people? How about an Ill equipped, ego maniac who thinks he is king. Pritzger must go.
