Two Illinois Justices Refuse To Recuse In Gun Cases Despite Anti-2A Donations

O’Brien said plaintiffs who asked them to recuse can’t prove they are biased in favor of the law, despite receiving $1 million each in campaign donations from the biggest supporter of the gun ban law, Gov. JB Pritzker, and receiving the endorsement of gun control groups who demand those they endorse also pledge to support such weapons bans.
