We citizens of IL have an opportunity to create an alternative future...
As the data suggests, we have issues! At this critical time, we truly need citizen actions to even begin to enact changes. Can we:
- Work with the political class to reduce the size of government, defund or end variety of programs, which enables tax reductions?
- Seek tax and regulatory relief to make the Illinois economy attractive for new businesses and job growth?
- Rescue our state from the budget challenge of providing for illegal migrants, assuring funding of programs intended to assist our own people?
- Restore the rule of law to protect our neighbors, empower law enforcement to do their jobs and lock up criminals?
Let’s get to work!
