Senator Tammy Duckworth is calling on President Trump to fully explain his goals and strategies for ending the war with Iran.

Duckworth told WMAY’s Patrick Pfingsten on PM Springfield that the war is driving up the cost of living in the U.S.

Duckworth said Vice President JD Vance is not qualified to broker a deal with Iran.

Duckworth also said a big reason for higher taxes in Illinois is federal cuts.
