State Representative Avery Bourne Fights Back on Accusations

One of the main ways State Representative Avery Bourne campaigns and gets in touch with people is by going door to door to find out what the people are most uneasy about in the state of Illinois. She said one of the biggest issues she found is that people are frustrated with the government. Bourne said she thinks this can be fixed through political term limits and redistricting in he near future.

Bourne said her opponent Mike Mathis accused her of not supporting any of the programs in the last state budget and hasn't done enough to represent her district. She said, through fact checking, people can see these allegations just aren't true.

Bourne said, Politico, an independent fact checking group, rated these accusations as “Pants on Fire” lies.

Representative Bourne appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
