Illinois Dems bail out bureaucrats, not middle-class Illinoisans

February 25, 2021

Another day, another news story revealing the corruption within Democrats’ $1.9 trillion COVID legislation.

The latest?

Democrats snuck in a provision that provides a $570 million family leave account exclusively for federal workers that lets them stay home with their school-age children and still get paid.
 
And Casten, Underwood and Bustos still plan to vote for this corrupt bill.

So while middle-class Americans are juggling putting food on the table and teaching their kids (because Democrats won’t open schools), Illinois Dems are making sure federal workers get paid $21,000 to stay home.
