Rep. Spain Blasts Dems Hiring Madigan Henchman to Defend Gerrymandering

Today, State Representative Ryan Spain was joined by Illinois House Minority Leader Tony McCombie and State Representative Dan Ugaste for a press conference at the Capitol to update the public on the lawsuit filed by Leader McCombie against Democrats gerrymandered legislation maps.

“In an unprecedented move, the Illinois Attorney General has declined to take a position on our lawsuit before the IL Supreme Court to bring fair legislative maps and representation to Illinois,” said Spain. “Instead, Speaker Welch has come forward and hired Mike Madigan’s favorite henchman, Mike Kasper, to defend his overtly partisan gerrymandered legislative maps. The same Mike Kasper who in 2016 was called Democrats’ chief weapon against redistricting reform.

“It is time to end Democrat insiders conspiring with one another to disenfranchise the people of Illinois!”
