Illinois House of Representatives
Speaker Michael J. Madigan, Democrat

The 96th Illinois General Assembly convened on January 14, 2009 [1] and adjourned sine die on January 11, 2011. [2] Over that period, the Illinois Senate was in session for 144 legislative days, [2] and the Illinois House was in session for 165 legislative days. [3]

Contents

Of the 59 members of the Senate, 40 were elected in the 2008 election, [1] as were all 118 members of the House. The House and Senate both had Democratic Party majorities during this session.

Legislation

The 96th General Assembly enacted a total of 1,555 bills into law. [4]

These laws included the abolition of capital punishment in Illinois, which Governor Pat Quinn signed into law on March 9, 2011. [5] There had been a moratorium on executions in Illinois since 2000. [5]

Other measures passed included the Employee Credit Privacy Act, which prohibits employers from asking for a job applicant's credit history in most cases, [6] and the Prevent School Violence Act, which targets school bullying based on characteristics including sexual orientation and gender identity. [7]

On May 27, 2009, House Speaker Michael Madigan introduced an amendment to the Illinois Freedom of Information Act. His daughter, Attorney General Lisa Madigan, had worked on the draft amendment with the Illinois Press Association, the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform, the Better Government Association, and Citizen Advocacy Center. [8] The bill passed the House the same day, then proceeded to the Senate, where it was sponsored by Kwame Raoul. The Senate concurred in the House's amendment on May 28, 2009. The governor signed the bill into law on August 17, 2009. [9] The amendments roughly doubled the size of the Act based on its word count. [10] The Illinois FOIA became considered one of the most liberal and comprehensive public records statutes throughout the United States. [11] The legislation became effective on January 1, 2010, issuing the most sweeping changes to FOIA since the original enactment in 1984. [12] The Illinois FOIA became considered one of the most liberal and comprehensive public records statutes throughout the United States. [11]

Removal of governor

Governor Rod Blagojevich was arrested by federal agents on December 9, 2008, and charged with conspiracy and soliciting bribes. [13] In the closing days of the 95th General Assembly, the House voted 114–1 (with three abstentions) to impeach the governor. [14] [15] The charges brought by the House emphasized Blagojevich's alleged abuses of power and his alleged attempts to sell legislative authorizations and/or vetoes, and gubernatorial appointments including that of US President Obama's vacated Senate seat. On January 14, 2009, the 96th House voted to affirm the impeachment vote of the prior session with only Deborah Mell dissenting. [16] [17]

The impeachment trial in the Illinois Senate began on January 26, 2009. [16] [18] Blagojevich boycotted attending his own hearings, referring to them as a kangaroo court. [19] [20] On the first day of the 96th General Assembly, the Senate adopted rules governing the impeachment trial. [1] By two separate and unanimous votes on January 29, the governor was removed from office and prohibited from ever holding public office in the state of Illinois again. Lieutenant Governor Patrick Quinn then became governor of Illinois. [21]

Senate

Under the 1970 Illinois Constitution, the Illinois Senate has 59 members, who are elected to overlapping two- and four-year terms. Of the 40 members elected in the 2008 Illinois Senate election, 39 were elected to four-year terms; Heather Steans of the 7th District was elected to a two-year term. [1]

John Cullerton was chosen by the Senate Democratic Caucus in December 2008 to replace outgoing president Emil Jones. [22] Jones had been a strong ally of governor Blagojevich. [22] Cullerton was formally elected on the first day of the 96th Senate, in a party-line vote. [1]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Rod Blagojevich corruption charges</span> 2008 indictment of the then-Governor of Illinois Rod Blagojevich with corruption

In December 2008, then-Democratic Governor of Illinois Rod Blagojevich and his Chief of Staff John Harris were charged with corruption by federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald. As a result, Blagojevich was impeached by the Illinois General Assembly and removed from office by the Illinois Senate in January 2009. The federal investigation continued after his removal from office, and he was indicted on corruption charges in April of that year. The jury found Blagojevich guilty in August 2010 of one charge of making false statements with a mistrial being declared on the other 23 counts due to a hung jury after 14 days of jury deliberation. On June 27, 2011, after a retrial, Blagojevich was found guilty of 17 charges, not guilty on one charge and the jury deadlocked after 10 days of deliberation on the two remaining charges. On December 7, 2011, Blagojevich was sentenced to 14 years in prison.

A number of controversies related to Rod Blagojevich, formerly the Governor of Illinois, were covered in the press during and after his administration.
