ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN PARTY
— Illinois Republicans Respond to Biden Dropping Out
https://illinois.gop/illinois-republicans-respond-to-biden-dropping-out/
(PRESS RELEASE: CHICAGO — Illinois Republican Party Chair Kathy Salvi released the following statement regarding the announcement that President Biden is no longer seeking reelection: “Today’s announcement is the culmination of years of lies from the Biden White House and Democrats shaming anyone who questioned the fitness of President Biden. Democrats are divided, torn apart by their own duplicity trying to pass off President Biden’s inability to fulfill his role, while Republicans stand united behind President Trump and an agenda of freedom, prosperity, and safety. Democrats have become the party of self-service while Republicans have become the voice of this nation. We as Illinois Republicans must continue to call attention to JB Pritzker’s tax-and-spend, pro-criminal agenda that drives families away from this state to protect the rest of the nation.”)
