Pritzker ‘Disappointed’ as Government Set to Reopen

Governor JB Pritzker says he’s “disappointed” with a group of eight Senate Democrats — including Senator Dick Durbin — following a crucial vote as the government reopens. “I respect him, but I disagree,” Pritzker said. “We had a chance to protect people’s healthcare, and I think more could have been done.” The comments underscore growing intraparty tensions — as even within the same side, disagreements over priorities and leadership are emerging.
