The Illinois House of Representatives formally adopted its rules for the 102^nd General Assembly Wednesday, formalizing a shift in the chamber’s operating procedures that allows business to be conducted remotely while imposing term limits on leadership.

Meeting for the first time inside the House chamber since early 2020, the usually perfunctory adoption of the chamber’s rules was especially notable due to the tweaks made in the aftermath of former House Speaker Mike Madigan’s longtime grip on the body.
