Serving The Community
The Sworn Duties of the Illinois Attorney General are to:
- PROTECT THE CONSTITUTION,
- UPHOLD THE RULE OF LAW, AND
- KEEP AMERICA SAFE
Allowing mass violent protects, resulting in property damage and injuries, without legal consequences;
Failing to prosecute theft, resulting in thousand to million-dollar losses to homeowners and businesses;
Impeding the capture and removal of known criminals engaging in human and drug trafficking; Ignoring non-citizens terrorizing our communities....is a dereliction of those duties!
The BIBLE says, "When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn." Proverbs 29:2
The People of the State of Illinois are crying out for help! "And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I, send me." Isaiah 6:8
