Yesterday, Governor J.B. Pritzker of Illinois delivered his Budget and State of the State Address. The speech included a controversial moment when he compared President Trump to a Nazi. This remark has drawn criticism from various quarters.

Rep. Miller expressed dissatisfaction with the governor's address, describing it as "a red herring to mask his failed public policies that are destroying the State of Illinois." According to Miller, Pritzker avoided discussing pressing issues that impact residents and businesses in Illinois.

Miller also highlighted concerns about state spending, stating, "We have spent over $2.8 billion on illegals since 2022 — money that should have been spent on Illinois citizens."

The comments reflect ongoing debates within the state regarding fiscal policy and immigration-related expenditures.
