Pritzker: If true, ‘he’s gonna have to resign’
Gov. JB Pritzker – who was also a subject of headlines regarding a public corruption investigation Friday – said at an unrelated news conference in Waukegan that if the allegations against Madigan are true, “He’s gonna have to resign.”
“The speaker has a lot that he needs to answer – to authorities, to investigators, and most importantly, to the people of Illinois,” Pritzker said. “If these allegations of wrongdoing by the speaker are true, there is no question that he will have betrayed the public trust. And he must resign.”
The Chicago Sun-Times reported Friday morning that it had obtained documents that “show the U.S. attorney’s office in Chicago has asked Cook County Assessor Fritz Kaegi for all emails and any other communications dating to 2012 regarding the tax break that Kaegi’s predecessor, Joseph Berrios, gave Pritzker.”
