A new report shows how 13th Ward Chicago Alderman Marty Quinn and Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan diverted tens of thousands of dollars in public funds toward political purposes.

The speaker is nationally unique in his ability to control politics and policy.

In his 17th term leading the Illinois House of Representatives, Madigan has broken the record as the longest-serving House speaker in modern U.S. history.

A federal judge has cleared the way for a lawsuit filed by a 2016 primary opponent of House Speaker Mike Madigan, which alleges discrimination by the speaker for filing “sham candidates.”

No Americans trust their state government less than Illinoisans.

A post-mortem on Illinois’ 2017 regular legislative session shows missed opportunities for taxpayer savings.

Madigan has now controlled his chamber as speaker for more than 11,900 days.

The House speaker’s spokesman claims the session is not a political move.
