(Springfield, IL) — The leading Democrat in the race for Illinois governor says the current governor’s budget ‘fails.’ Candidate J.B. Pritzker yesterday said that Governor Bruce Rauner is failing to introduce a truly balanced state budget. Rauner’s latest spending plan relies on a cost shift that doesn’t have much support at the statehouse. Pritzker yesterday said the budget proposal is an all-out assault on workers and social services in the state.
