Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker looks to supporters after he defeated GOP challenger Darren Bailey on Nov. 8, 2022, in Chicago. On Saturday, Jan. 7, 2023, a day after Illinois House Democrats approved pay raises for top government officials in late-night budget legislation — include a 16% hike for them — Pritzker told reporters that he only asked lawmakers to approve increase for his departments heads in order to attract top talent. He said the Legislature is a co-equal branch of government and he is focused on the executive branch. (AP Photo/Nam Y. Huh, File)
