Over 200 years ago, Shawneetown was the central hub of commerce in our state, including the first bank in Illinois.

We're coming together today to revitalize the port and return it to its former glory — bringing jobs, investment, and opportunity to the people of Gallatin County.

Illinois is holding the people of Minnesota closely to our hearts today.

The start of the school year should be a time of renewed hope, not gun violence and devastation.

We stand with the victims and their families in Minneapolis.

Minnesota is heartbroken.

From the officers responding, to the clergy and teachers providing comfort, to the hospital staff saving lives, we will get through this together.

Hug your kids close.

Always thrilled to be back at the Farm Progress Show.

As the nation's largest outdoor farm event, it's great to see over 600 exhibitors come together in Decatur — and what an opportunity to showcase what makes Illinois' agriculture one of our leading industries.

On Women's Equality Day, we recognize the progress we've made and the work that remains to be done in the pursuit of genuine equality.

Know that you'll always have a champion in me as your governor, even as forces in DC work to undo that hard-earned progress.

Excited to announce the construction of Cronus’ new production facility in Tuscola — an anchor of the Illinois agricultural industry of tomorrow.

With this $2B investment, we’re bringing in jobs, meeting rising demand for fertilizer, and keeping costs low for our farmers.

Never forget.

Helping build the Illinois Holocaust Museum was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life.

The lessons we can learn from survivors like Sam are too relevant today — and why the Satellite Campus we're opening is a reminder of our responsibility to speak up.

Trump and his Congressional Republicans have cut Medicaid — putting rural hospitals in Illinois at risk of closure.

Here in Perry County, a fourth of residents rely on it for their health care coverage.

Make no mistake: we're working and listening to find the best path forward.

The safety of the people of Illinois is my highest priority, so we will follow the law and stand up for the sovereignty of our state.

Our state and local law enforcement partners know our neighborhoods and our streets because they live here too.

They’re not asking for this and we will continue to listen and coordinate with them, as we always do.

We don’t play those games. Our commitment to law and order is delivering results.

Crime rates are improving. Homicides are down by more than 30% in Chicago in the last year alone.

Our progress in lowering crime has been made possible with CIV programs that they’re defunding.

Trump’s goal is to incite fear in our communities and destabilize existing public safety efforts — all to create a justification to further abuse his power.

He’s playing a game and creating a spectacle for the press to play along with.

After using Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. as his testing ground for authoritarian overreach, Trump is now openly flirting with the idea of taking over other states and cities.
govpritzker.illinois.gov
As Trump continues to target members of the press, Illinois will protect and empower our journalists to keep the public informed.

Today, I'm signing SB 1181 into law to strengthen anti-SLAPP legislation — the press don't have to fear retaliation for reporting the truth here.
