CHICAGO, IL — This week, Governor JB Pritzker secured Illinois’ 12th credit upgrade since he was elected governor, the second upgrade in less than a week. Gov. Pritzker also pressured the Trump administration to release $1 billion in broadband funding to the state. Meanwhile, Illinois Republicans tried to figure out who to blame for their incompetence – the verdict? All of them. Meanwhile, Darren Bailey threatened to bring his flailing campaign to the Chicagoland area.
