Sen. Rose Blasts Governor For Choosing Democrats Spending, Raises Over Interest of Illinoisans

As the Illinois Senate wrapped up the spring legislative agenda some would categorize as radical, a central Illinois lawmaker took off the gloves criticizing Governor JB Pritzker.

 

Sen. Chapin Rose came in off the top rope to blast the Chicago Democrat for not doing the right thing and standing up for the people of Illinois when Illinois Democrats had to reintroduce and re-approve the budget because the first version, passed in the early morning hours, could not be signed.

 

 

With former Speaker of the House Mike Madigan now out of the Illinois political picture, Sen. Rose says Gov. Pritzker has now become the leader of the Illinois Democratic Party and embodies the progressive left agenda.

 

 

The Mahomet Republican wasn't done there - he also teed off on the Governor for outright breaking his campaign promise to not sign a lawmaker-drawn legislative map and then having the pomposity to blame Republicans for not bringing forward a legislative map. 

 

 

Sen. Rose says Illinois Republicans have turned to the courts to have maps drawn independently and this just another in a long list of broken promises by the first-term Democrat.
