I find it disgusting this Governor will try to lock up mom and pop business owners just trying to feed their families and pay their bills while his family travels around the country and he continues to let rapists and murderers out of jail! https://t.co/8IRToNKiAp #twill
Rep. Meier delivered 33 gowns to the Carlyle Healthcare Center yesterday. The gowns were made by volunteers from the Okawville Mask Factory. #twill https://t.co/NRZnEJdtUZ

Thousands of small businesses are struggling to stay open during the coronavirus pandemic as a result of the stay at home order. Increasing the minimum wage is a job killer and even worse during a pandemic. https://t.co/jltScahPFl #twill https://t.co/NwK1ekiAXA

We did it! Because of opposition from the public, myself, and members of JCAR. Governor Pritzker withdrew his rule that would punish businesses by issuing a fine up to $2,500 and jail time if they did not follow his 'Stay at Home' order. Also, thank you to the GOP members of JCAR
