Pritzker’s incompetence is putting lives in danger.

There is not an emergency in the city of Chicago. In Chicago over the weekend, at least 54 people were shot. This is just over Labor Day weekend. We do not want troops on the ground in the city of Chicago, neither do the people of Chicago or the people of the state. They're going to hold their cars to their chest and say, we don't need you in Chicago. Well, I'm here to say, we do need you in Chicago. No one wants them to come. That crime is down. The governor, as well as the mayor, should be on board with it, just so we can get a bit more of security in Chicago. Do not come to Chicago. You are neither wanted here nor needed here. For anyone in our community to say that things are getting better and that people are safe, that is an outright lie. The president is still operating on some antiquated idea. Our children can't walk around the community without fear of being hurt or kidnapped or having to drive by. Chicago is in much better shape as a result of the work that we are doing to prevent crime, to interrupt crime, to reduce crime. I don't see a reduction in crime. The city is moving in the right direction on crime. Do you feel like the city feels safer? No, not at all. No one really feels safe. It's impossible to feel safe in a city like this, especially with the leadership we have.
