J.B. Pritzker to Address Illinois Issues and Solutions at Inauguration.

Governor elect J.B. Pritzker is officially getting sworn in, in Springfield. The two-hour ceremony kicks off at 11. Pritzker will address the state to speak about our problems and his proposed solutions.

Two, out of the many things he's said he'll focus on are the state's finances and keeping people from moving out of Illinois.

Governor Pritzker has already pledged to fix the income-tax structure that's in place, start and advance a construction plan for roads and bridges, legalize marijuana and its tax revenue of about a billion dollars and even increase the minimum wage.

One thing republicans have agreed on is Pritzker's goal of creating jobs and bringing creators here to Illinois.

According to reports, democrats have already extended a warm welcome to Pritzker, who was a self-funded candidate with support for unions and top Illinois Dems.

One thing that's already is his favor is the permission, from the House and Senate, to pay his agency heads 15 percent more than Bruce Rauner's administration.
