By Greg Bishop, includes “Gov. J.B. Pritzker criticized the Trump administration’s handling of COVID-19 Wednesday and said it can do better moving forward, including passing a measure to provide billions of dollars to cover lost revenue for states and local governments. … ‘If you can spend trillions of dollars helping large corporations survive, $500 [billion] to support state and local governments, which provide such vital resources for our residents, I would say is a small price to pay,’ Pritzker told the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security on Wednesday.”
