Pritzker appears to be taking a jab at President Trump who signed an executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker jokingly announced that the name of Lake Michigan had been changed to "Lake Illinois," poking fun at President Donald Trump's Gulf of America. Pritzker posted a video on Friday, saying that Illinois was annexing Green Bay, mocking the president's interest in taking over Greenland.

Anticipating a lack of federal funding under the new presidential administration, Illinois has postponed construction in a long-awaited $1.15 billion project to stop the movement of invasive carp up Illinois waterways and into Lake Michigan.
