- Balancing the budget
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker (Democrat) has outlined his ambitious agenda for the state, promising to focus on economic growth, government stability, and budget balance.
In a recent interview with The New York Times, Pritzker said he is "thinking big" for Illinois and wants to make the state a "national leader." He said his priorities include:
- Creating jobs and growing the economy
- Improving education and healthcare
- Protecting the environment
- Making Illinois a more just and equitable state
Pritzker, a wealthy businessman and heir to the Hyatt hotel fortune, was sworn in as governor in January 2019. He is the first Democrat to hold the office in over a decade.
Pritzker's agenda is ambitious, but he has also faced criticism from some Republicans who say his plans are too expensive and unrealistic. It remains to be seen whether Pritzker will be able to achieve his goals, but his ambition is a sign that he is eager to make a difference in Illinois.
