Governor JB Pritzker
Husband and father. Proudly serving as Illinois’ 43rd governor.
- Another tenant in the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park. And that means another step toward bringing us closer to the advancements quantum can bring to our economy, our state, and our future.
- Under my administration, we've stabilized our finances, balanced seven consecutive budgets, delivered 10 credit upgrades, and more. I'm building off that toward fiscal responsibility and continuing to make progress toward full pension funding.
- Illinois is joining the World Health Organization's Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network. I refuse to sit by as Donald Trump undermines science and weakens our nation's ability to detect and respond to global health threats.
- Always great to stop by Normal and get to meet the students of ISU.
- United's record-breaking expanded flight offerings at O'Hare demonstrate the company's sustained commitment to growth in Illinois. Boosting our economy, supporting jobs, and strengthening Chicago's tourism and hospitality industries.
- Illinois’ public universities have reached a 10-year high in enrollment. Thanks to the investments we’ve made in education, we’re fostering world-class talent and the next generation of leaders. It’s a win for our schools, our businesses, and our state.
- Kristi Noem is unprepared for the job she’s got. It’s past time for her to go.
- Donald Trump promised to make life more affordable for working families across the nation. A year into office, I think we can all see how that's worked out.
- Happy Black History Month, Illinois.
- Had the chance to stop by City Center Market in Rockford this week. As a part of our Illinois Grocery Store Initiative, stores like this are helping us eliminate food deserts throughout our state.
- I know they call our neighbors up North the cheeseheads, but we invite them to be a part of the newest capital of cheesemaking, Savencia in Lena. Savencia’s expansion and committed investment in Illinois mean new jobs and new opportunities for the people of Stephenson County.
- Get ICE out of our streets, communities, and cities. I see you all making your voices heard and being loud for America.
- Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and Donald Trump’s other lackeys should find lawyers because they must be held responsible for the killings and the damage they’ve done to our country.
- Heartbroken to hear of the passing of Harvey Mayor Christopher Clark this morning. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones during this difficult time. May his memory be a blessing.
- Sonya Massey will not be forgotten. Nothing we ever say or do will bring her back, but today’s decision is a step toward change and justice. May her memory be a blessing and may it continue to fuel our work to build a system that protects all its citizens.
- Here in Illinois, we’re investing in our world-class workforce and creating opportunities for Illinoisans of all backgrounds to find well-paying jobs in construction and building trades. Through Illinois Works, we’re not just building our talent pipeline — we’re shaping careers.
- The problem won’t be gone until you are, Tom. Pull all ICE and CBP agents out of Minnesota and stop attacking American communities.
- Standing with Minnesotans tonight and paying my respects to Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
- Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, Greg Bovino. They must all resign and be held accountable.
- Illinois is one of the few states in the middle of the country that protects the right to comprehensive reproductive healthcare. Supporting care here means supporting access for people who have nowhere else to turn.
- Illinois is taking a step forward for health care access and reproductive rights with the launch of the Prairie State Access Fund — an example of true public and private sector partnership. We're sending a clear message: Illinois trusts women to make their own medical decisions.
- Illinois recorded its third consecutive year of population growth, according to the US Census Bureau. We're strengthening what helps people choose to stay and build their lives so families can raise their kids, workers can build careers, and entrepreneurs can grow businesses.
- It's a whole lot of BS hearing MAGA say that they're the patriots. I’ve had it with people who say they love America but seem to hate Americans.
- Trump’s Spending Bill means fewer people will have food on their table – by design. He's forcing states like Illinois to create more bureaucracy for families to get the help they need. All this to support tax breaks for the rich.
- Kristi Noem must resign. And if she won’t, she must be held accountable and impeached by Congress.
- On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember and honor the six million Jewish lives and countless others murdered by the Nazi regime. Today and every day, it’s on us to not only reflect but act to confront antisemitism and combat hate in all its forms. Never again.
- Who’s next? One demotion cannot detract from accountability. Greg Bovino and Trump’s agents must still be held responsible for the killings and the damage they’ve done to America.
- Sending Tom Homan to Minnesota is like pouring gasoline on a fire. The chaos is the point — let’s stop sending Trump officials in and start sending Trump’s agents home.
- Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution. If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.
- When Donald Trump says who he really is, believe him. He's raising your grocery prices. He's violating your civil rights. He's rolling back your health care. He's taking away your education. It's past time to stand up, push back, and be loud for America.
- Republican and Democratic governors alike need to stand up and speak out. We have got to stand together against the onslaught of the federal government under Donald Trump.
- Keep your eye on any weather updates and changes to road conditions today — and while you’re at it, check on your neighbors and loved ones. Let’s work together to keep everyone safe this weekend.
- Donald Trump’s agents are untrained, unqualified, unprofessional, and dangerous. It’s time for them to stop their assault on American cities.
- It's time to abolish Trump’s ICE.
- Masked federal agents in Minnesota just shot and killed another person. We must put a stop to Trump’s ICE. Now. Stop the funding, stop the occupations, stop the killings.
- Heavy snow and cold temperatures are coming this weekend, Illinois. Let’s all keep looking out for one another throughout this intense winter weather. Monitor your local forecasts and stay safe.
- Proud to announce this week the lineup for International Jazz Day 2026 held right here in Chicago! In less than 100 days, we’ll put our legacy on display to the world as we welcome visitors far and wide for this historic event on April 30th.
- Just six years out from a pandemic that transcended borders, Trump is abandoning global cooperation by withdrawing from the World Health Organization — and it makes all of us less safe. Illinois will continue to work with trusted partners to protect lives and follow the science.
- Another welcome announcement as we advance toward our goal of Illinois being the epicenter of the quantum ecosystem.

- Nothing triggers MAGA more than a woman empowered to make her own decision. In the face of the regressive campaign being waged by those extremists, Illinois will always protect women’s autonomy and freedom.
- We used to mark today with celebration — today, we must mark it with action. Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, Illinois has safeguarded and expanded existing protections for medical professionals, as well as made contraception and the abortion pill more accessible.
- On set at Flyover Film Studios today. A part of the economic game-changer our film and TV industry is bringing to Central Illinois and throughout the state.
- Illinois is renowned worldwide as a hub of scientific research, education, and innovation. It’s in no small part thanks to the work being done here at the UIUC’s National Center for Supercomputing Applications.

- Illinois is standing up for working families against Trump's administration — we're fighting for what's owed to our people and spearheading the way to make life more affordable. Today, I convened a roundtable to hear from Illinoisans on how his policies affected their lives.
