If it seems to you that more legislators are announcing their retirements than in the past, you're right, at least about the House.
With last week’s retirement announcement by Rep. David Harris, R-Arlington Heights, a total of 24 House members have either resigned or announced that they weren't running for re-election.
That compares to 16 state Representatives who retired or resigned during the 99th General Assembly, a two-year period that ended last January.
