AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Governor’s Race: Gov. JB Pritzker’s campaign released partial 2025 tax returns showing $9.4 million in income, including $8.5 million in taxable income on the state return; trust details remain undisclosed. In their only debate, Pritzker and Republican Darren Bailey clashed over taxes, spending and ties to President Trump ahead of the Nov. 3 election. Policy Watch: Pritzker said his housing overhaul likely won’t advance this fall, while bills on data centers and a possible Bears stadium remain in play. Cook County voters will also weigh a nonbinding question on a 3% income surcharge for income above $1 million, split between property-tax relief and schools. Public Safety: A 19-year-old is charged with planning an attack on an Aurora-area Hindu temple; police say his car was seen at the site days before his arrest, and temple leaders have increased security. Health and Utilities: State and county programs have erased more than $2.4 billion in medical debt. The Illinois Commerce Commission approved an $82 million Nicor rate increase.
