The Governor is preparing his combined state of the state and budget address for Wednesday.

Republicans are urging JB Pritzker to eliminate wasteful spending – and according to House Minority Leader Toni McCombie the budget should address the moral priority of spending on Illinois citizens.

Pritzker has recently pledged and additional $182 million to address the continued care of migrants and asylum seekers who have largely been bused to Chicago by the Republican Governor of Texas.
