Harassment accusations hit Illinois lawmakers again
The Champaign News Gazette notes four months after Lou Lang stepped down amid sexual harassment claims, the inspector general found no evidence against him or Ira Silverstein in separate cases. Porter’s reports stress conduct above board while detailing fallout, training, and ethical scrutiny across the legislature. The Decatur Herald highlights Illinois tuition moves amid student out-migration and a brain drain risk, urging state action and better support for in-state education to keep students and roots from draining away.
