JB Pritzker Statement on Crosscheck in Illinois

Statement

Date: July 17, 2018
Location: Chicago, IL
Issues: Elections

JB Pritzker issued the following statement on the final day for Bruce Rauner to sign SB 2273 and stand up to Donald Trump to protect Illinois' elections:

"When a foreign adversary attacks our elections, we must take every step necessary to hold those responsible accountable and protect our voters," said JB Pritzker. "Here in Illinois, we can take immediate action by ending Crosscheck, but yet again, Bruce Rauner is standing on the sidelines while our state faces relentless attacks. We can't risk Russians having access to sensitive voter data and we can't trust Donald Trump to keep us safe as he cozies up to Vladimir Putin and displays contempt for American intelligence. Bruce Rauner needs to stand up to the Trump administration and sign SB 2273 to end Crosscheck and protect our state's elections from further interference."
