To the Editor:
While Illinois ranks last in fiscal stability, the political class took a break from dodging FBI investigations to present their budget solution: spend more money we don’t have and impose tax hikes, hurting families and our economy.
The embattled families of our community deserve a courageous fighter who will audit the state’s books and restore fiscal responsibility. As a CPA, I will balance the books and curb spending. Representative Monica Bristow voted to increase her own salary on Illinoisans’ dime, but I will put people ahead of political self-interest and get Illinois on track toward fiscal solvency.
