Carroll Responds to Pritzker’s Budget Address

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. – State Rep. Jonathan Carroll, D-Northbrook, issued this statement after Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s budget address:

“Billions of dollars in unpaid bills, a massive deficit and eight credit downgrades in just four years demonstrate that Illinois cannot continue to muddle from crisis to crisis. Governor Pritzker presented a clear assessment of the challenges we face. Now it’s up to legislators and the governor to come to the table, negotiate, and make the tough decisions we need to put Illinois back on a path to fiscal stability.”
