Hey there, it’s Illinois Governor JB Pritzker with an urgent message.
|
Donald Trump has pledged to wage war on Chicago and just last week, he even said I should be in jail.
|
Here’s what I say to Donald Trump: Come and get me.
|
If you’re ready to stand with me as Trump escalates his attacks on American cities, Democratic-led states, and governors like me – will you add your name now to stand with me and Democratic governors across the country?
|
|
Team, here’s the hard truth: Donald Trump is ignoring the rule of law, and we need to call it what it is: authoritarianism.
|
These actions by Donald Trump are not making us safer. It’s a show of intimidation, instilling fear in our communities and hurting small businesses. But as I’ve said before, if you come for my people, you come through me. And I will not let Donald Trump play games with Illinoisans’ lives.
|
Team, believe me when I tell you that the law is on our side when it comes to standing up to the president.
|
I know we can overcome these challenges. And Democratic governors across the nation are also standing strong in this fight by challenging Donald Trump in court.
|
But Donald Trump and Republicans aren’t letting up anytime soon – so it’s up to us now to fight back. I’m asking you personally: Will you add your name now to stand with me and Democratic governors who are standing up for you and fighting for our rights nationwide?
|
|
The State of Illinois is going to use every lever at our disposal to resist this power grab. I am not afraid. And I won’t back down.
JB Pritzker
Governor of Illinois
