With the investigation into State House Speaker Michael Madigan ending, Illinois Congressman Rodney Davis thinks that it’s typical Illinois politics and that every Illinois Democrat needs to answer for why the Speaker is still in power. 

One of the biggest issues facing the State of Illinois currently is with the Illinois Department of Employment Security (IDES) and people fraudulently filing for unemployment. Congressman Davis says that it has happened to people all across the state including to him.

IDES is also asking some people in the state who received Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) and may have been overpaid to pay back potentially thousands of dollars to the state. IDES is placing the blame on the federal government while Congressman Davis says that the state is at fault.
