Pritzker’s Budget & Innovation Committee. The CTBA is “committed to ensuring that state, federal and local workforce, education, fiscal, economic, and budget policies are fair and just."
Dan Proft (Con) is a radio talk show host on AM 560, former candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor, and co-founder of the Illinois Opportunity Project, which “seeks to promote the social good and common welfare by educating the public about public policy that is driven by the principles of liberty and free enterprise.”
