跟进：伊利诺伊州民主党众议员钟淑玲盼新议长与新任立法监察长整顿性骚扰处理机制
伊利诺伊州布卢明顿选区州众议员钟淑玲11月10日表示，她希望众议院议长的更替以及新任立法监察长的上任，能从根本上改变州政府处理性骚扰与虐待指控的方式。钟淑玲是26名要求众议院议长伊曼纽尔·“克里斯”·韦尔奇下台的州众议员之一，这场行动导致韦尔奇被撤换。她上周在无对手的情况下连任，赢得第三个两年任期。伊利诺伊州议员定于下周返回斯普林菲尔德参加秋季否决会期，届时将接受性骚扰预防培训，培训由新任代理立法监察长戴维·里斯利主持。里斯利接替了前任迈克尔·麦卡斯基。钟淑玲表示，议长换人与监察长换人应当带来实质性改变，让受到骚扰的州政府工作人员得到更公正的处理。她同时表示，新的领导层需要对立法机构内部的问责机制作出交代。伊利诺伊州众议院的秋季否决会期定于11月17日至19日以及12月1日至3日举行。
Follow-Up: Illinois Rep. Sharon Chung Hopes New Speaker and New Legislative Inspector General Will Overhaul Handling of Harassment Complaints
SPRINGFIELD, Illinois — Illinois state Rep. Sharon Chung, a Democrat whose district includes Bloomington, said on November 10 that she hopes the change of House speaker and the arrival of a new legislative inspector general (LIG) will fundamentally change how the state government handles sexual-harassment and abuse complaints, NPR Illinois reported.
Chung was one of 26 state representatives who called on House Speaker Emanuel "Chris" Welch to step down, a revolt that led to his replacement. She was re-elected without opposition last week to a third two-year term.
Illinois lawmakers return to Springfield next week for the fall veto session, where they will receive sexual-harassment prevention training led by David Risley, the new acting legislative inspector general. Risley succeeds Michael McCuskey in the watchdog post.
Chung said the turnover in both the speakership and the inspector general's office should bring substantive change so that state employees who experience harassment are treated more fairly, and that the new leadership must account for accountability mechanisms inside the legislature. The House veto session is scheduled for November 17–19 and December 1–3.
