Bill Summary

Condemns in the strongest possible terms Governor JB Pritzker's recent inflammatory and divisive rhetoric that appears to advocate for unlawful action against the duly elected President and members of the federal government. Urges the Governor to retract and clarify his remarks and to reaffirm his commitment to civil discourse, the peaceful transfer of power, and adherence to the Constitution of the United States.

AI Summary

This resolution condemns Illinois Governor JB Pritzker for making public statements that the resolution characterizes as inflammatory and potentially dangerous, specifically remarks urging Democrats to take "whatever means are necessary" to resist President Donald Trump and the Republican Party. The resolution argues that such rhetoric is reckless and unbecoming of a sitting governor, particularly during a time of high political tension, and potentially threatens the peace and constitutional order of the federal government. The document calls on Governor Pritzker to retract and clarify his remarks, reaffirm his commitment to civil discourse and the peaceful transfer of power, and adhere to the Constitution of the United States. Additionally, the resolution emphasizes the importance of elected officials serving as examples of lawful behavior and respectful disagreement, and it calls for copies of the resolution to be delivered to the governor, legislative leadership, and the Illinois congressional delegation.
