SPOTLIGHT: May Madness in Illinois Legislature

Written by Alyssa Sonnenburg

It’s “May Madness” in the Illinois General Assembly and this special episode of Spotlight features IFI’s lobbyist, David Curtin, with an update on what exactly is going on in Springfield.

“May Madness” is a term coined by David Curtin to describe the legislative chaos that ensues in Springfield before the May 31st adjournment. In essence, during this time, anything could happen with legislation.

“Anything could happen, and usually does in May…

May is usually the month where things come out of the nooks and crannies of the capital– you have never seen this legislation before, you’ve never seen these budget numbers before. They pass things or don’t pass things as they see fit.”

This is a vitally important episode that you do not want to miss.
