McCuskey agrees to resign as LIG - Illinois Times, the capital city's source of news, politics, arts, entertainment, culture (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You may know that embattled Legislative Inspector General Michael McCuskey has agreed to resign his post by the end of September. But this sorry saga shouldn’t end there. The Legislative Ethics Commission should immediately launch an investigation into why so many women over the years have said they believed they were mistreated and even belittled and dismissed by LIG McCuskey. They could also ask whomever they replace McCuskey with to revisit the cases, for instance. And that sounds like what t
Legislature needs to question its inspector general - Illinois Times, the capital city's weekly source of news, politics, arts, entertainment, culture (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the past week or so, three women have told stories about their dissatisfaction with the way they were treated by the state’s legislative inspector general. And it’s clear that at least three of the four legislative leaders are quickly becoming fed up with the LIG and that another leader may have trouble sustaining his claim that one of his members was cleared of wrongdoing. You may have seen the Chicago Tribune story about an unnamed female lobbyist who formally objected to the way she was tr
Groups eye Meta settlement money - Illinois Times, the capital city's source of news, politics, arts, entertainment, culture (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hours after the social media giant Meta agreed last Wednesday to settle a case brought by 47 state attorneys general and implement reforms to protect children from social media harms, the Illinois Federation of Teachers issued a demand that all of Illinois’ portion of the $17.1 billion settlement – $768 million – be designated “to address the funding crisis for school districts across the state.” “The Governor has said he supports more funding for education but didn’t know where it would come fr
10 years at the top not guaranteed - Illinois Times, the capital city's source of news, politics, arts, entertainment, culture (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After Michael J. Madigan’s 36 years as Illinois House speaker, a 10-year term limit on current and future speakers doesn’t seem like a lot of time in the big chair. Nobody prior to Madigan had ever served 10 years as speaker in this state going back to when Illinois became a state in 1818. The only person who came close was Republican Warren Wood, who held the position for eight years in the 1950s. Most of the rest served single terms or two terms. Democrat Paul Powell served six years, includin
Welch discusses Benton investigation - Illinois Times, the capital city's source of news, politics, arts, entertainment, culture (opens the original)
Read excerpt
House Speaker Chris Welch sat down for interviews with some selected reporters last week. He told most of them that his office had conducted an “informal investigation” into sexual harassment allegations against former Rep. Harry Benton (D-Plainfield) in 2023. Welch’s staff has not responded to our request for an interview (same goes for the Chicago Tribune). But nobody asked whether he and his staff spoke to anyone other than Benton and the 22-year-old district office staffer who accused Benton
