Jabba the Mutt PRITZKER FORCED TO WITHDRAW CRIMINAL PENALTIES FOR SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS WHO DEFY HIS ORDER

The Nazi lost.

illinoispolicy-

Pritzker previously responded to criticism by doubling down.

He amended Illinois Department of Public Health rules on May 15 so business owners could be charged with a crime for violating his closure order.

But…

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker decided treating the state’s struggling small business owners like criminals during the COVID-19 pandemic was not the best policy.

Pritzker’s office on May 20 withdrew his controversial rule that made a Class A misdemeanor out of violating his business closure order. The announcement came as the Illinois General Assembly’s Joint Committee on Administrative Rules, or JCAR, was about to review the rule that imposed criminal penalties of up to a $2,500 fine and a year in jail.

“A single mom doing nails in her own home to try to feed her children and keep a roof over their heads would be subject to a substantial penalty, and even jail time,” Wheeler said.

Pritzker’s withdrawal of the rule means he likely did not have the votes to avoid public rejection from lawmakers – let alone their constituents.

  1. From L.A. Times – why they aren’t ticketing beachgoers for sunbathing and going maskless: https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2020-05-20/beach-rules-no-citations

    I find it hilarious that the mayor and chief of LAPD both said that it made sense not to ticket people sunbathing or not wearing masks the first week or so, because people are so desperate to get outside and have to ‘get used to the new law’. Isn’t the entire point of the law that WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE!!! UNLESS WE ALL WEAR THE MASKS!!!? If they truly believe that then they would be ticketing from day 1! Incredible.

  2. Funny how San Fran Nan rips into Trump who hardly has an issue when she has so many completely unhealthy sloths – this idiot, Nader, Moore pick all the fat liberal F@@@ celebs. Not to mention Kankles was no slim gal even with all that yoga she was doing.

  3. Comorbidity came up in the Presidents Briefing yesterday afternoon.

    Then msNBC Nancy atarts morbid obesity talk diversions and being morbidly fat is bad yet good on some, depending on whose food shop the morbidly obese spend their food funds in and, most importantly, run.

    Run and Fat
    Hmmmmmmmmm

  5. He’s part of the billionaire oligarch class, along the lines of Michael Doomberg, Warren Buffett, Jeff Beazos, Mark Zuckerberg, et. al.

    They think that they know what’s best for us plebs, when in reality it’s all designed for what’s best for them. They are self-serving, power hungry control freaks
