A governor should not make promises he has no intention of keeping. The people of Illinois have been lied to enough. In my campaign for Governor, I am laying out my vision for turning our state around. Unlike, Pritzker, I refuse to make empty promises to the people of Illinois. It is time we had a Governor who will treat the people of this state with dignity and respect. Governing is not a game. It is serious business. The people of Illinois deserve better than Pritzker’s failed leadership and outright lies to the people of Illinois.”
