Lower Utility Bills & Transparency

End Insider Deals. Protect Working Families.

Utility costs continue climbing while insiders cut backroom deals. Families deserve honesty and fairness.

The Blueprint will:

• Repeal CEJA
• Freeze new utility rate hikes
• Roll back costly mandates that raise electric and gas bills
• Require independent, public audits of all utility contracts

Energy bills should be predictable, transparent, and affordable.

Illinois Families First

Protecting Resources. Restoring Responsibility.

Illinois must prioritize the people who live, work, and pay taxes here.

The Blueprint ensures:

• Essential services put Illinois families first
• No sanctuary policies that protect violent offenders
• State spending flows to classrooms, seniors, and communities in need

Fairness and responsibility must come before politics.

Safe Neighborhoods

Accountability That Protects Every Family

Every family — suburban, rural, and urban — deserves to feel safe.

The Blueprint strengthens public safety by:

• Restoring consequences for repeat violent offenders
• Bringing back commonsense police pursuit policies
• Supporting law enforcement and expanding youth-prevention programs
• Prioritizing victims and families

Safe streets are the foundation of strong communities.

A School System That Puts Students First

Education — Not Politics — in the Classroom

Illinois schools should focus on learning, fairness, and parental involvement.

The Blueprint will:

• Ensure girls’ sports are for biological girls and boys’ sports for biological boys
• Refocus classrooms on reading, writing, math, science, and civics
• Remove political agendas and activism from the classroom and eliminate unfunded mandates
• Expand transparency and parental rights
• Support teachers with better resources, stronger discipline policies, and clear standards

Strong schools build strong families — and a strong Illinois.

Cutting Bureaucracy & Ending Mandate Overload

Common Sense, Transparency, and Accountability

Illinois government is bloated, confusing, and too often self-serving. Families deserve better.

The Blueprint reforms government by:

• Eliminating wasteful and duplicate agencies
• Requiring a 10-year sunset review of all state programs
• Publishing every state contract and expense online
• Imposing a 5-year ban on legislators becoming lobbyists

Key reform: For every new unfunded mandate added, two existing mandates must be eliminated. This reduces red tape, lowers costs, and restores local control.

Illinois DOGE: Transparency & Accountability

A Public Corruption Watchdog With Teeth

Illinois DOGE will serve as a focused watchdog to expose waste, fraud, and corruption in state government, and restore trust with taxpayers.

This effort is not about targeting public employees who are doing their jobs well. It is about accountability, transparency, and making sure taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly.

Illinois DOGE is a permanent transparency and accountability watchdog, focused first and foremost on:

• Rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse
• Exposing corruption wherever it exists- no matter the party or position
• Restoring trust between the people of Illinois and their government

Illinois families deserve an honest government that works for them, not the insiders.

A Stronger Illinois Starts With Strong Families

Protecting What Matters Most

When families are supported, every neighborhood becomes a better place to live.

The Bailey Blueprint delivers:

• Safer communities
• Lower, more predictable household costs
• Stronger schools
• Real support for working parents
• A government that works for taxpayers — not against them

This is the path to a safer, stronger, more affordable Illinois — a future worthy of every family.
