Updates:
5/22/20 At a time where Illinois already had a strong mail-in ballot program. Our state legislators chose to use the Covid19 as an excuse to pass a Vote by Mail bill (SB1863) for all voters in Illinois. This was passed even with an unknown price tag to already struggling local governments. This bill also grants government only employees a day off.
For the record, I am totally against Governor Pritzker's threats to fine businesses and possible jail time for violating his "stay-at-home" order. It should be up to the business owners to decide how to open their business while following the mask/distancing rule. It is their livelihood that is being destroyed, and he has no authority to keep them shut down.
