  1. It’s a good idea to educate the voters about the issues in the Turnaround Agenda.

    Many average citizens might have heard of the Turnaround Agenda but do not know the topics in the Turnaround Agenda, much less understand the topics.

    Apparently Governor Rauner felt the urgency to address these problems quickly, but it’s a monumental shift in Illinois to educate voters on the topics, in no small part due to the fact the special interests are financially incented to keep the status quo.
