SPRINGFIELD â A House committee tasked with reviewing statues and monuments on state property held its first meeting Wednesday, hearing from professors and state government associations on what frameworks can be established to guide the review process.
Rep. Tim Butler, a Springfield Republican who serves as minority spokesperson on the task force, said House Speaker Emanuel âChrisâ Welchâs creation of the review body is an âimportant and correctâ decision.

And some monuments which have been erected in previous generations certainly conflict with the values we hold today.â
