Governor Pritzker knows...the specter of federal vouchers is all tricks, not treats!

On Tuesday, October 27th, call and urge him to opt out of the federal voucher program and keep vouchers from returning to Illinois!

RSVP and we'll send you a reminder to call on Tuesday!

Every state must decide whether to participate in the Trump administrations' harmful new federal school voucher program by January 1, 2027.

Governor Pritzker hasn't yet announced his decision, but we expect him to do so any day, and he needs to hear from public school supporters in Illinois that federal vouchers are all tricks, no treats!

Illinois Families for Public Schools and other advocacy orgs around the state are coordinating a mass call-in day for Tuesday, October 27th. Let's flood the Governor's office with calls to say: Keep federal vouchers out of Illinois!

Governor's Office Phone Numbers:
217-782-6830 ✶ 217-782-6831 ✶ 312-814-2121 ✶ 312-814-2122

What to say when you call:

I'm a constituent and a public school {supporter, parent, teacher, student, alum}. I'm calling to urge Governor Pritzker to say NO to federal school vouchers.

We need real, sustainable funding for public schools that serve everyone—not federal tax trickery that makes school funding even less fair in Illinois.

Spread the word! Ask your friends, neighbors, family to call too: bit.ly/oct27callJB
