WATCH: Use of Guard debated; Trump singles out Pritzker on AI; Property tax ruling
(The Center Square) – In today’s edition of Illinois in Focus Daily, The Center Square Editor Greg Bishop reviews heated moments from separate U.S. House and Senate committee hearings that touched on the use of the National Guard for public safety around federal immigration enforcement.
Bishop also discusses the status of regulations on artificial intelligence and President Donald Trump’s latest executive order concerning a unified front for regulation. Trump singled out Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker as a “totally unreasonable person.”
Finally, Bishop discusses a story from Legal Newsline about Cook County’s property tax sale system being found unconstitutional by a federal judge. The ruling comes as activists in Chicago urge taxpayer to boycott their property taxes, which help Illinois being the state with the highest property taxes in the country.
