Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan is again pushing to make the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum a separate state agency. Madigan, D-Chicago, has filed legislation to separate the facility from the state Historic Preservation Agency. The legislation is part of House Bill 136. Madigan's proposal would place the ALPLM under the direction of an 11-member board appointed by Gov. Bruce Rauner. Currently, three separate boards have some kind of oversight over the facility, which has sometimes led to conflicts and confusion about the direction it should take.
