Press Release:  Darren Bailey Owes Voters Answers on His “Blueprint for Illinois”

Chicago, IL – As Illinois voters consider their options in the ILGOP gubernatorial primary, there are still major questions Darren Bailey has refused to answer about his so-called “Blueprint for Illinois.” With early voting underway and the primary election fast approaching, Bailey must tell the people of Illinois where he truly stands.

Here’s what voters want to know:

• What programs and agencies would Darren Bailey put on the chopping block when he “DOGEs” Illinois?

• If Darren Bailey took a DOGE-style chainsaw to state government, which Illinois workers would lose their jobs first?

• Why does Darren Bailey think DOGE-ing Illinois will succeed here when the same approach was deeply unpopular with the American people at the federal level?

• How exactly does Darren Bailey plan to “refocus” schools on reading, writing, math, science, and civics while pushing Christian values into public classrooms – especially given his background running a Christian private school?

• How would the extremist curriculum Darren Bailey promoted at his Bob Jones-style school impact students across Illinois if imposed statewide, given his calls to “remove political agendas and activism from the classroom”? What happened to the separation between church and state?

• What does Darren Bailey say to the tens of thousands of Illinoisans who could lose their jobs if he repeals the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act?

• How can Illinoisans have faith that Darren Bailey will “restore trust in government” when he associates with insurrectionists and has repeatedly sown distrust in our elections?
