Senator Craig Wilcox, Incumbent Candidate for State Senate in the 32nd District, has released a statement on the impacts of learning losses from Covid School Closures:

“Democrats kicked their "Government knows best" philosophy into high gear during Covid and unilaterally bowed down to Governor JB Pritzker’s desire to forcefully mandate nearly every aspect of Illinoisans’ lives, including the education of people’s children. The Democrats’ disastrous policies have permanently harmed the educational development of our kids and continue to negatively impact their mental and emotional health. They were so determined to have full control that they mandated restrictions, often without flexibility to local conditions, to force their will, their way, on every Illinois family.”
