SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Republican Party released the following digital video Friday, focusing on Speaker Madigan's 32% income tax hike.
And IL GOP Chairman Tim Schneider isn't happy with Republican members of the Illinois House that helped override Governor Rauner's budget veto.
“I am extremely troubled by the decision of 10 Republicans to again stand with Mike Madigan. Republicans in Illinois fought Madigan’s machine in 2014 to elect Gov. Rauner and won. In 2016 we beat Madigan again and made historic gains in the House and the Senate," Schneider said in a statement.
"After all we have accomplished together, it is astonishing that these legislators would now turn their backs on taxpayers across the state. I am confident voters will hold those politicians accountable for choosing Mike Madigan over the people of Illinois.”
