ILLINOIS STATE HOUSE DISTRICT 22: Statement from Speaker Madigan 04/27

Meeting 08

Illinois State House District 22 issued the following announcement on April 27.

House Speaker Michael J. Madigan released the following statement:

“Like Governor Pritzker, I find Representative Bailey’s lawsuit to be extremely reckless, at a time we can least afford it. The governor’s actions have consistently reflected an understanding that, as we face this crisis, we must be guided by what is right – not what is easy, comfortable or expedient. Clearly, we cannot say the same for all the leaders of our state.

“It is my sincere hope that upon further review, this decision is reversed, and that our health care workers, first responders and loved ones are not unnecessarily subjected to added risk by such a short-sighted lawsuit.”
