Illinois State Senate District 31 issued the following announcement on July 17.
State Senator Melinda Bush (D-Grayslake) released the following statement on a criminal bribery investigation that appears to implicate House Speaker Michael J. Madigan:
“We can’t allow this shameful behavior to continue — especially from someone who has a lead role in both the General Assembly and throughout the state. The continuous ethics and legal violations have been swept under the rug for far too long. This past January I introduced Senate Bill 2488, which would require any lawmaker who has been indicted to be immediately removed from leadership. Should Madigan be indicted, he must be removed from leadership and resign immediately. Anyone in the Illinois General Assembly with ties to this ComEd scandal has betrayed the trust of the public. They must be held accountable.”
