CHICAGO—(ENEWSPF)–August 7, 2014. Illinois Republican candidate for governor Bruce Rauner has given more than $2 million to extreme right-wing causes and groups associated with the Tea Party and the billionaire Koch Brothers, new research shows.
Personally and through his foundation, Rauner has contributed to groups that want to lower the minimum wage, privatize Social Security and end Medicare as we know it, ban abortion, defeat marriage equality legislation, deny climate science and oppose environmental protections.
