(Chicago, IL) — The Illinois Supreme Court is going to review a constitutional amendment regarding changes to the political map-making process that was struck down in a lower court. The amendment, which approved in the November election would create an independent commission to draw legislative boundaries in the state, was deemed unconstitutional by a Cook County judge last week. An attorney connected to House Speaker Michael Madigan is suing to keep the measure off the ballot. The Supreme Court is set to review the case tomorrow.
