Gov. Bruce Rauner vetoes immigration rights bills in Illinois' Trump country

    August 24, 2018
    Rick Pearson

    Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner used the opening of the Du Quoin State Fair on Friday to veto “bad bills” to expand rights for immigrants living in Illinois illegally as the governor tries to solidify core rural conservatives Downstate who back President Donald Trump behind his re-election.

    Rauner told WJPF-AM 1020 in Marion that Illinois’ high number of immigrants who lack documentation “pushes up our unemployment rate and that holds down wages in Illinois and takes jobs away from Americans. We’ve got to stand against that.”

Slowly but surely, the "Trump Effect" is transforming the GOP.
