State Senator Erica Harriss has released the following statement following the multiple guilty verdicts in the ComEd bribery trial:
“While it’s already widely known, this case demonstrates just how corrupt the system is here in Illinois. While I’m encouraged by the guilty verdicts, there is still a long way to go to reform the system that has plagued our state for far too long. If anything, I hope this case finally puts pressure on the General Assembly to enact reforms to fix a system where politicians too often serve their interests ahead of those they are supposed to represent.”
