Illinois Democrats Have Priorities Upside Down

Written by Kathy Valente

Democrats in Springfield have made Illinois one of the most unwelcoming states for businesses and families. They’re doing nothing to correct it, but instead have introduced bills to make it worse.

Due to the Biden Administration’s open border policies, Illinois is now home to over 530,00 illegal aliens, many of whom are enjoying free benefits on the backs of Illinois taxpayers.

The Trust Act, passed by Democrats in 2017, established Illinois as a sanctuary state, providing sanctuary for illegal aliens and preventing Illinois law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration authorities. Democrat sponsored HB 2706 (2025) would strengthen Illinois’ sanctuary state status by placing more restrictions on law enforcement’s ability from cooperating with I.C.E and other immigration officials, while allowing criminals to run free. This is part of Pritzker’s plan to “Trump Proof” Illinois.

Free healthcare for illegal immigrants has cost Illinois taxpayers $2.2 BILLION. Democrat sponsored HB 3780 (2025) will provide universal healthcare for all people residing in Illinois regardless of immigration status.

The Democrat giveaways are incentives for illegals. Democrats already have plans to raise our taxes.
