Ela Township Republicans

A REsponse to JB Pritzkers 4/25/25 Statement

“These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. They have to understand that we will fight their cruelty with every megaphone and microphone that we have. We must castigate them on the soapbox and then punish them at the ballot box. They must feel in their bones … that we will relegate their portraits to the museum halls reserved for tyrants and traitors."

Governor Pritzker,

We read with interest, and some horror, your statement of 4/25/25 aimed at President Trump and Republicans. One of your statements stood out to us – that your party must not allow Republicans “a moment of peace”. You may think that this is just rhetoric but recent violence against your political opponents triggered by Democrat operatives says otherwise. Are our Democrat neighbors and friends going to take your words as permission to harass us, their fellow Illinois citizens for the “cruelty” of voting our consciences and our pocketbooks? We certainly hope not. We Republicans seek for peace and prosperity for ALL Illinois/American citizens by advocating for the Republican principles of limited government, defending the Constitution and promoting economic prosperity. Calls for harassment of citizens who are exercising their constitutional rights is beyond inappropriate.

Please remember that you are governor of all Illinois citizens, not just those in your party.

Sincerely,

The Ela Township Republicans
