Currie, Durkin heading another Ill. ethics panel
SPRINGFIELD – Deciding the fate of Illinois politicians accused of misconduct is starting to become a habit for two state legislators.
Barbara Flynn Currie and Jim Durkin have been named to the top spots on the Illinois House committee that will decide whether to recommend expulsion for a member accused of bribery. The two also led the committee that impeached then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
Currie is a Chicago Democrat. She was appointed chairwoman of the committee Monday.
