Illinois is now the number one state in the Midwest to work in. This ranking reflects our work in making Illinois the best state in the nation to do business, raise a family, and thrive.
Governor JB Pritzker (@govpritzker.illinois.gov) reposted
Together, we've made Illinois a beacon of hope for workers everywhere. We've made life more affordable for families, created good jobs with fair wages, and made it easier to get an education and find a career. When we stand up and stand together, we win.
