Time to cut those puppet strings
To my District 46 neighbors, we have a choice this election between Deb Conroy-Democrat, incumbent, and Heidi Holan-Republican, challenger, for our State Representative. Deb Conroy has been in office for two terms and seems to be firmly in Madigan's pocket.
Let me give you example. Deb Conroy voted to bail out the Chicago Public School system. Let that sink in.
That's right; she would take your tax dollars and give it to fund Chicago Public Schools. All the while, we in DuPage pay higher and higher property taxes to fund our schools. Ask yourself why would Deb Conroy vote to bail out the Chicago Public Schools when she represents taxpayers in DuPage? Ask yourself why is Madigan and the groups he controls is helping fund Conroy's campaign?
I have just counted 16 attack ads that I received in the mail against Heidi Holan on pure scare tactics and misguided priorities. Not one ad is about balancing our state's budget, pension reform, high property taxes that are chasing people and businesses out of Illinois, our Illinois debt, deficit and unfunded pension liability that amounts to $45,500 per taxpayer, reducing layered bureaucracy to bring down the cost of government, fairly funding education and on and on and on.
So why would you vote for Deb Conroy as our State Representative? Seems to me she doesn't care about those she represents and the high property taxes we are paying. Don't be fooled, she is just another puppet of Madigan; let's cut those puppet strings.
