Illinois Lawmakers Sworn in for the 103rd General Assembly

SPRINGFIELD (WGEM) – The 103rd General Assembly is officially underway as Illinois state lawmakers were sworn in Wednesday afternoon. Gov. JB Pritzker presided over the Senate inauguration and Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias led the House ceremony.

The 2022 election season sent several lawmakers out the door and many statehouse veterans decided to retire. However, Democrats still hold a supermajority in both chambers.
