Tom Miller interviews Governor Bruce Rauner on WJPF

Newsradio WJPF interview with Gov. Bruce Rauner

CARTERVILLE, IL –  Above is the link to Tom Miller’s interview of Governor Bruce Rauner on WJPF.

Here are some highlights.  He had some strong words for Speaker of the House Mike Madigan over holding Illinois hostage with the school funding issue.  He called a special session in the senate for noon today.  He also called out Democrat State Represenatives Brandon Phelps (Norris City) and Jerry Costello II (Smithston) for voting for Madigan.

He discussed the Chicago school bailout.  He said it is not fair to Southern Illinois districts.  The governor will have an amendatory veto to Senate Bill 1, if he hasn’t already.

He also mentioned how there is a Democratic spin that he was the one who raised taxes.  Governor Rauner vetoed the tax increase as well as the spending bill.

The interview is nine minutes long.  It is well worth your time.  – Steve
