CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— ALL OF THE FRONT PAGE: J.B.’s ‘Windy City Rehab’: Pritzker spends $275K of
his wealth to fix up Chicago offices — but leaves GOP suite a fixer upper The
stained gray carpets, some with duct tape to hold them together, are gone — at
least in the offices of the governor and his staff. There’s now a dividing line
between Pritzker’s staff and the offices housing Republican staffers on the
16th floor — a spiffy new blue carpet butting up against the tattered gray one.
