State Sen. Sally Turner (R-Beason) releases the below statement following the Governor’s Budget Address:

"The Governor's budget address was heartfelt and appreciated in addressing loved ones we've lost due to COVID-19. COVID continues to remain at the forefront of our focus and unfortunately immunizations are still lagging behind in our state. A lot more effort needs to be placed into the process of notifying and immunizing the people of the state of Illinois in a timely and organized manner.

“On the budget itself, it fails to address the root causes of Illinois' fiscal deficit. It doesn’t address Illinois’ pension crisis, the countless businesses who are on the brink of bankruptcy nor escalating property taxes throughout the state.”
