According to reports by The Hill, on April 27 local time, Pritzker delivered a speech at a Democratic fundraising dinner in New Hampshire, calling for large-scale protests against the Trump administration and strongly criticizing "inert Democrats" for failing to launch stronger opposition against Republicans.
"I have never called for large-scale protests, mobilization, and social disorder in my life, but I am calling for it now," said Pritzker. "These Republicans can never rest easy; they must understand that we will counter their cruel actions with all our amplifiers and microphones."
He added: "We must criticize them severely on the podium and punish them at the ballot box."

Pritzker also criticized some members of the Democratic Party for listening to political experts instead of ordinary Americans, saying they "flocked to podcasts and cable news shows to denounce Democratic colleagues for not caring enough about the plight of working families."
"Those inert Democrats want to blame our failures on our defense of Black people, transgender children, and immigrants, rather than their own lack of courage and audacity," said Pritzker.
"We will never end up in the specific corners of hell reserved for traitors and cowards like many Republicans. We will put their portraits in the museum galleries reserved for tyrants and traitors," Pritzker stated.
