The Medicaid portal went dark for Illinois and other states Pritzker says it's now restored. But he says he doesn't buy White House blaming it on a website issue, as Trump hasn't earned that level of trust. Pritzker says it's either incompetence or a lie

.@GovPritzker did not take questions from journalists, so no fresh comment from him on the recent ICE activity. But here's an excellent interview from last week on @21stShow with @BrianMackey and Pritzker was on @CNNSOTU Sunday

Pritzker said he will work with the Trump administration—like on issues like the law he’s signing, to eliminate Illinois’ participation in a federal program that allows disabled individuals to be paid less than minimum wage. Biden started phasing it out; now it’s up to Trump.
At a bill signing, @GovPritzker says “already” the @realDonaldTrump administration is increasing consumer costs, causing layoffs and holding back the economy. “For LGBTQ Americans, small business owners and so many others, our Midwestern values are under siege,” he said.
