Madigan touts accomplishments during inaugural speech

Lisa Madigan summarized her accomplishments as attorney general during her inauguration speech Monday. She said she speaks for families and communities and helps them fight against identity theft and data breaches. Madigan said that trying to fight for equality for Illinois citizens is why she takes the oath of office.

 
"That requires speaking for those who have no voice, and it drives so much of the work that I do as attorney general."

 
Madigan was elected in November 2002. This is her fourth term as attorney general.
