An invitation to the Governor to tour a Chicago Public School after he referred to some of them as crumbling prisons is being decried as a political stunt by the Illinois Republican Party.
This a day after the Governor dodged a direct question about what schools he was talking about. Rauner says that he’s been in dozens of CPS schools and they often bring tears to his eyes. But recently pressed to name just one school that resembled a crumbling prison he didn’t name a single school.
Rauner went on to say that some are fine while others are not.
