Mike Madigan served as Illinois' Speaker of the House almost continuously since 1983. Madigan's colleagues voted to replace him just last week with Rep. Emanuel "Chris" Welch.

He also shared what he hopes to accomplish as the Biden administration gets underway and his stance on term limits for the House Speaker.
