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.
Lipinski – a pro-life Democrat who inherited his seat from his father – was nearly primaried out of his seat by a truly whack job far left progressive. Lipinski’s district is solidly Democrat and he hopes that his ‘centrist’ positions will appeal to moderate democrats and even conservatives in parts of his district that are more middle and working class. He’s in for a fight, for sure. The fact that two Illinois reps support this issue is more evidence that IL isn’t as progressive as today’s ‘orange man bad’ legislature makes it out to be.
