Illinois House overrides Rauner vetoes of income tax increase, budget.
The Illinois Senate had already overridden the veto with Republicans joining to avoid Illinois bonds receiving a junk rating.
“If I decide to press my button to override the governor, it doesn’t make me any less of a conservative Republican than the rest of the people standing here,” he said. “It makes a person decide he has to vote for his district. He has to think about all the people in his district to the best of his ability.”

Take THAT, Governor Ruiner! (sic)
