A top deputy of Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan abruptly resigned from several leadership posts Thursday after a former medical marijuana advocate accused him of retaliation, verbal abuse and "inappropriate behavior."
Democratic Rep. Lou Lang of Skokie announced he was stepping down as House deputy majority leader in a statement released as advocate Maryann Loncar was taking questions from reporters at the Capitol.
Loncar accused Lang of years of verbal abuse after they initially worked together to pass the state's 2013 law that legalized medical marijuana.
