Lawmaker Proposes New Laws For More Power To The Voters Concerning Corrupt Officials

Three proposed constitutional amendments could change the way that corrupt public officials are dealt with. Senator Jason Barickman of Bloomington Illinois introduced the amendments as a way to recall elected officials which would include the Auditor General, the House Speaker, and even the Senate President. 

 

 

Senator Barickman says that the public wants this change. 

 

 

The amendments are still in the draft phase. A certain percentage of voter signatures would be required to remove someone from office. 18 states in the US already have similar laws.
