The Illinois Senate Executive Committee has moved forward a bill, SB1954, allowing recalls for county officials throughout the state. The proposal would allow the counties to propose recall laws and put it on the ballot in 2026.
The bill, proposed by Senator Doris Turner (D), comes following the shooting of Sonya Massey last year. The Sangamon County Sheriff faced heavy criticism and has since resigned.
