Rep. Grant Wehrli (R-Naperville) doesn’t think Illinois Democratic gubernatorial candidate J.B. Pritzker will put much effort into governing Illinois if he wins November’s election.

“J.B. Pritzker's solution to Illinois's fiscal woes could not be any more simplistic," Wehrli recently said during a press conference with state Republican lawmakers. "It is simply a higher tax burden on all of us. It is an intellectually lazy approach to governance, there is nothing on the reform side, there is nothing on the cut side, there is nothing on the integration of technology to make our state government more productive. Intellectually lazy solution to our fiscal problems."

Wehrli, a former Naperville City Councilman, has represented the 41st District since 2014. He ran unopposed during the March primary and faces Democrat Val Montgomery in the November general election.
