House approves NDAA amid Trump veto threats

WASHINGTON (UPI) -- The House on Tuesday granted overwhelming bipartisan approval to the annual defense spending bill despite threats by President Donald Trump that he would veto the bill. Lawmakers approved the $740 billion National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) by a vote of 335-78, surpassing the two-thirds necessary to override a presidential veto, although there was no solid commitment that Republican lawmakers would vote against the action by Trump. A total of 140 Republicans joined a majority of Democrats in […]

Illinois lawmaker calls clawback in COVID-19 grant program ‘abuse of power’

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) – The first public hearing of the Restore Illinois Collaborative Commission focused on grants of federal dollars the Pritzker administration is administering to businesses.

Madigan influence on 2021 redistricting unclear, uncertain

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) – Illinois lawmakers will get another crack at redrawing the state’s political boundaries following this year’s Census, and that process every ten years has been run by House Speaker Michael Madigan for decades. University of Illinois politics professor Kent Redfield said with Madigan’s speakership uncertain, there could be a lot of uncertainty. “A strong leader that can exercise power that can kind of reign in that conflict, but if it becomes every person for themselves, then […]

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) -- More Illinois House Democrats have said they won’t support Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan for another term. Every two years, the Illinois House votes for speaker; 60 votes are needed. The office manages how the House operates. Madigan (D-Chicago) has held that spot for all but two years since 1983. He recently has been implicated in several federal indictments against other people but hasn’t himself been charged with a crime. He maintains his innocence. State Rep. […]

More Illinois Democrats take aim at Madigan

Five third-party races to follow in Tuesday’s election

While the mainstream media focuses on the duopoly candidates, there are other choices on the ballot. From Illinois to Wyoming, and from Arkansas to California, third-party candidates are in it to win it. They can also pose a serious electoral threat as a result. In some races, they're three-way races in hot contention. Others may be head-to-head against a Democrat or a Republican. In rare instances, the candidate is the only option on the ballot. As we count down with […]
