JB Pritzker's administration is facing criticism for its impact on Illinois residents and businesses. Detractors argue that his progressive policies have led to economic decline, increased taxes, and changes in the education system. According to critics, these policies have not benefited families who are not reliant on state assistance.

"Hard-working families continue to struggle with record-high inflation," a critic stated, adding that instead of implementing policies to reduce taxes, "Pritzker raises taxes!"

Concerns have also been raised about public safety in Illinois. A proposed House Bill 5219 suggests that all prison terms be served at 50% of the original sentence, regardless of the crime committed.

Governor Pritzker has also been criticized for his handling of illegal immigration issues. Critics claim he avoids discussing the crisis and accuse him of dishonesty when addressing related questions and concerns.

A petition has been launched to support legislation aimed at repealing the Trust Act and ending Illinois' status as a sanctuary state.
