Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan, D-Chicago, said he’s not going anywhere despite members of his own party saying it’s time for him to step down as party leader.

State Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, D-Oswego, is making a bid to replace Madigan as speaker when the next term of the Illinois House begins in January. She also said he shouldn’t be leading the Democratic Party of Illinois anymore.
