The day after one group of Illinois House Republicans demanded Speaker Madigan resign amid FBI investigations and harassment cases that have tainted his caucus for decades, another group, in a State Capitol press conference, called on Governor Pritzker to call a special session of the Illinois General Assembly specifically to address ethics reform in Illinois government.
State Representative Dan Caulkins (R-Decatur) called it a very special issue that cannot be ignored. He said that in order for legislators to have any credibility with the people in the state, we need to reform what happens in the statehouse.
