SPRINGFIELD — In response to Governor Pritzker’s budget address today, State Senator Mattie Hunter (D-Chicago) issued the following statement:
“As we ramp up negotiations for the upcoming state budget, it is important to remember that our community continually seeks help in securing affordable and equitable housing, quality education and health care in their own backyard.
