Some Illinois Republicans are calling for legislation to allow Illinoisans to recall corrupt public office holders.

House Republicans have introduced legislation that provides that local officeholders who were elected during a general or consolidated election may be recalled under the Local Government Elected Official Recall Act.

One measure would amend the Illinois Constitution and create a recall mechanism for all elected officials in the state.
