Righter Dr. Kathleen Robbins, Equality Illinois Anita Rodriguez, Assistant State’s Attorney, Adams County Maria Rodriguez, Former Mayor of Long Grove Senator Jil Tracy ILLINOIS CAMPAIGN FOR POLICITCAL REFORM (ICPR) Best Practices Recommendations - General Assembly Ethics Reporting and Investigatory Processes Best Practices Recommendations General Assembly Ethics Reporting and Investigatory Processes January 2018 | The Illinois Campaign for Political Reform The Illinois Campaign for Political Reform is a nonpartisan public interest group that advocates for research-based reforms to increase government integrity, transparency, and accountability. After a comprehensive review of existing statutes and rules regarding the reporting and investigation of sexual harassment claims in the Illinois General Assembly, we are recommending the following changes be implemented to improve the ILGA ethics reporting and investigatory process. • Legislative Ethics Commission – Transparency o When the LIG finds substantial evidence of wrongdoing, a summary report of the investigation and its findings should be published, with redaction of sensitive information, including the identities of complainants and witnesses. o The report should be published within 60 days of the investigation’s conclusion, unless the findings in the report lead to further action by the LEC, in which case the report should be filed upon the conclusion of all LEC action, including any disposition they deem appropriate. o Additionally, a report summarizing the business of the LIG’s office should be published on an annual basis. This report should include: § Number of complaints received § Distribution of complaint types (e.g. waste, abuse of power, discrimination, etc.) § Number of investigations opened § Summary of investigation resolution (e.g. dismissal, recommendation for LEC action, etc.) § Number of ongoing investigations § List of public reports made since last summary The Illinois Campaign for Political Reform | 312-436-1274 | [email protected] o Many states, including California, New York, and Florida, require the publication of some or all of the information listed above, highlighting the disparity between our disclosure requirements with other large states. • Legislative Inspector General – Independence o The Legislative Inspector General must have the authority to open investigations as he/she deems necessary based on complaints his/her office receives. o Additionally, the LIG must have the authority to subpoena and otherwise conduct an investigation without requiring outside approval from the LEC. o Specifically, the Legislative Ethics Commission should not have approval power over any investigations conducted by the LIG. o These methods of ensuring independence are considered best practices by the Association of Inspector Generals and are modelled by the Office of Congressional Ethics and the US House Ethics Committee. • Legislative Inspector General – Selection o The Legislative Inspector General should be selected by the Legislative Ethics Commission, not by the legislative leaders. o LIG candidates should be nonpartisan attorneys with experience in ethics investigations. o LIG candidates should not be currently or formerly employed by a campaign for state legislative office and should not have an attorney/client relationship with any legislative leader or member of the LEC. • Ethics Investigations –Expand the Statute of Limitations o The statute of limitations for an ethics violation complaint should be increased from the current limit of 18 months since the last date of alleged wrongdoing. o Since an investigation may be initiated until 12 months from that same date, the current limit may only allow 6 months for the inspector general’s investigation and the Attorney General’s evaluation of the completed report. o The standard should be amended to allow a complaint to be filed 12 months after an ethics investigation was opened, or 18 months since the last date of alleged The Illinois Campaign for Political Reform | 312-436-1274 | [email protected] wrongdoing, whichever is later. This would expand the maximum statute of limitation to 24 months. • Legislative Ethics Commission Composition o The Legislative Ethics Commission should be composed of General Assembly members and members of the public with experience in ethics policy, investigation, and/or disposition.

    Debt Transparency Initiative (Passed House 70-40-0; Passed Senate 37-16-0) House Bill 3649 (Rep. Fred Crespo - Stephanie A. Kifowit - Marcus C. Evans, Jr. - Brandon W. Phelps, Silvana Tabares, Martin J. Moylan, Robert Martwick, Arthur Turner, Kelly M. Cassidy, Natalie A. Manley, Kathleen Willis, Jehan Gordon-Booth, LaToya Greenwood, Gregory Harris, Frances Ann Hurley, Theresa Mah, Emily McAsey, Christian L.

Wallace and Elizabeth Hernandez) Senate Bill 1652 (Sen. Andy Manar - Pat McGuire - Iris Y. Martinez - Melinda Bush - Don Harmon, Laura M. Murphy, Omar Aquino, Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, Linda Holmes and Steve Stadelman) Purpose The state’s unprecedented fiscal challenges require a full weighing of outstanding vouchers and the ramifications of the $12 billion-plus unpaid bill backlog. House Bill 3649/Senate Bill 1652 seeks to provide a more accurate accounting of bills being held by each state agency and the late interest penalties the state is accruing. Background: After appropriations are made and services are provided, each state agency sends bills to the Comptroller for payment. However, if vouchers for payment are held at the agency level due to a lack of appropriation or processing delays, these liabilities remain largely hidden from the Comptroller. The state’s Prompt Payment Act, which assigns a 1% per month penalty to bills that are 90 days past due, applies to a currently unknown number of the bills being held by the agencies.

  • 2017 IHCA Regular Legislative Session Report
    2017 IHCA Regular Legislative Session Report 2017 Legislative Session Overview FY17 and FY18 Budget Overview Substantive Legislative Initiatives June 2, 2017 2017 Legislative Session Overview The 2017 regular spring session came to a close with a whimper late Wednesday night. The first year of the 100th General Assembly began with the legislature and Rauner administration returning to Springfield following an acrimonious and bitter 2016 election cycle. The Democrats attempted to make the elections a referendum on the efforts of the Governor and legislative Republicans to tie non-budgetary items such as workers compensation reform, pension relief and property tax relief to the state’s budget. For their part the Republicans did the same, with messaging centered on the use of increasing income tax and protection of union interests against the Democrats. The Democrats seemingly won the day in the 2016 March primary election, defending Republican Senator Sam McCann against a Governor Rauner funded opponent who was slated as punishment for McCann’s stance against Rauner on an AFSCE friendly bill, and defeating incumbent House Democrat Ken Dunkin for his staunch support of the Republican Governor. As well, they handily defeated a Rauner funded primary opponent of Speaker Madigan (placing a primary opponent against a sitting legislative leader is all but verboten in Springfield, making this move something of a shock to the Springfield political establishment). These victories, however, weren’t quite the sign of things to come that some expected in the November general election. In the race for Illinois’ junior Senate seat, Democrat Tammy Duckworth easily surpassed incumbent Republican Senator Mark Kirk.

  • 2020 Illinois General Election Results
    2020 Illinois General Election Results DISCLAIMER: All noted races below have not been certified by the Illinois State Board of Elections and are subject to change. With the massive upswing of mail-in-voting this year, it is HIGHLY likely that many races will not be final until all ballots are in. In Illinois, ballots that are post-marked for Election Day have 2 weeks from Election Day to arrive and be counted. As a result, many of the close races noted below could change and we have marked some races as too close to call. The University of Illinois System Office of Governmental Relations will keep you updated as the Illinois State Board of Elections updates these races. Note, the State board of Elections has listed December 4th as its date to certify the vote and publish official results. GRADUATED INCOME TAX AMENDMENT The constitutional amendment allowing the State of Illinois to implement a Graduated Income Tax failed at the ballot box with a vote of roughly 45% in favor and 55% opposed. The constitutional amendment needed a simple majority of all voters in the election to pass it or 60% of people who specifically voted on the amendment. The FY 21 budget negotiated on and passed in May was balanced, in part, on the projected revenues from the new graduated income tax. The consequences of this could be severe for higher education funding, as Gov. Pritzker has noted that there will need to be major cuts to public safety, education and human services in order to close the budget gap.

  • ICCTA Government Relations and Public Policy Report by Jessica Nardulli, ICCTA Legislative Counsel January 25, 2021
    ICCTA Government Relations and Public Policy Report By Jessica Nardulli, ICCTA Legislative Counsel January 25, 2021 New Leadership in the Illinois House State Rep. Emanuel “Chris” Welch, the new speaker of the Illinois House of Representatives, has promised to make some changes to the way the Speaker’s office operates. For one, Welch is adept at using social media and has committed to modernizing the office. He has also committed to ethics reforms and supports a law limiting leader terms to 10 years. One of the biggest areas for change is the upcoming legislative and congressional district reapportionment. Under former Speaker Michael Madigan, the process was partisan and handled behind closed doors. Governor JB Pritzker has promised not to sign an “unfair” map. Welch has been a supporter of “fair” maps in the past but acknowledged that his version of “fair” might not be the same as others. Welch’s first order of business is to announce the rules of the Illinois House. Welch has made it clear he wants more of a collaborative approach by conferring with his colleagues on both sides of the aisle. He also promised a leadership team that will show the state’s diversity of gender, race, and geography. Welch’s leadership team includes: • State Rep. Greg Harris - Majority Leader • State Rep. Jehan Gordon-Booth - Deputy Majority Leader / Speaker Pro-Tempore • State Rep. Mary E. Flowers - Deputy Majority Leader and Dean of the Caucus • State Rep. Jaime M. Andrade, Jr. - Assistant Majority Leader • State Rep. Robyn Gabel - Assistant Majority Leader • State Rep. Elizabeth Hernandez - Assistant Majority Leader • State Rep.
