Governor JB Pritzker was at the Abraham Lincoln Library and Museum in Springfield on Wednesday morning to tout his new tourism ad campaign called “Time For Me To Drive”. The Governor says now that Illinoisans are getting vaccinated, it is a good time to get back on the road and to see Illinois. The campaign will also be pushed in nearby states such as Wisconsin, Indiana, Missouri, and Iowa. Governor Pritzker says that people are tired of being home.

Speaker of the House Chris Welch says that there is still more work to do to get people out to see and to do things here in Illinois.

Representative Sue Scherer was also at the presentation. She says that the museum reminds her of a special time.

Scherer says she feels proud to have the Abraham Lincoln Library and Museum in her district.
