| Collapse all
- ILLINOIS HAS THE HIGHEST TOTAL STATE AND LOCAL TAX RATES ON A MEDIAN U.S. HOUSEHOLD, AT 15.1%. Out-of-control tax hikes, statewide and local, is one of the main cause for the large exodus from our state. We need and deserve better policy and planning to overcome these nonstop and nonsense tax hikes.
- Our students and parents deserve better. We need to implement and expand the school choice policy across the state. It will benefit our students and parents in general and specifically those of low-income communities.
- The rise of violent crime in our largest city, Chicago, is getting out of hand, while our politicians are more talk and less action. Empowering our law enforcement and investing in our forgotten high crime neighborhoods is the key. Our citizens deserve a safe and healthy community.
