GOV. PRITZKER: Morning!
I started walking to get more steps in.
Hey, how you doing?
But the real highlight is the people I meet along the way on sidewalks…
ILLINOISAN 1: Really nice to meet you
GOV. PRITZKER: …train platforms…
ILLINOISAN 2: We appreciate your support in the community.
GOV. PRITZKER: …in neighborhoods.
Thank you for your service.
I’m deeply proud of the people of Illinois, and I want you to feel the same pride in our state. Eight years ago, Illinois was being crushed by debt and unpaid bills. 10 credit upgrades later – more than any other state – we’ve saved taxpayers billions.
We expanded early childhood education, guaranteed paid leave for workers, lowered the price of prescription drugs, and I fought for our basic freedoms to protect innocent people and keep soldiers off our streets.
ILLINOISAN 3: Definitely feel like you’re with us.
GOV. PRITZKER: These are uncertain times, but Illinois will keep pushing forward, and I’ll keep walking with you, mile after mile. Because Illinois should have leaders who fight hard for the people we serve.
VOICE OVER: JB Pritzker, standing for progress, fighting for you.
