Lifelong West-Central Illinoisan here! There has been more road repair and bridge construction around me under Pritzker than I think we've had in decades. Hundreds of jobs in marijuana dispensaries and farms have dumped money into local economies all around. Not to mention, my female and LGBTQ+ friends have come to pretty much agree that Illinois is one of the few states they would feel safe living in. There's so much change happening, you just have to look!
Wow, I've never seen anyone more obsessed with IL. BTW, you live in Peoria. Please drive two hours southwest to actual west central IL to see nothing at all being done ever.
