Hide Profile

The Illinois General Assembly established three visiting committees (1879), each composed of two Senate and five House members, to visit state charitable; penal and reformatory; and educational institutions. Committees were to examine conditions; investigate any mismanagement charges; and report to the General Assembly. When the three committees were combined into one commission composed of nine members each from the House and Senate (1947), responsibilities remained the same.
