By Bill Cameron, WLS-AM News

(CHICAGO)  Embattled House Speaker Mike Madigan is out with a new admonition about sexual harrassment in Springfield.

Speaker Madigan has issued a statement promising to get personally involved in disciplining sexual harassers.

He says he’s sent a letter to each House Democrat that says staffers view them as their supervisors with power over them and  “This dynamic is ripe for potential harassment.

Madigan says, ” I expect each of you to treat staff with respect and keep your relationships strictly professional. He warns ” If I become aware of any complaints against a member by staff, or another member, I will personally get involved to put an end to it.”
