It’s been on the blogs. You can go directly to the Illinois bar website, bring up their attorney records, and see that their licenses are inactive.

I suppose they could borrow Bill Clinton’s; he’s not using it much.

They probably chose to be inactive. An attorney can write a letter to the Supreme Court of the state where (s)he is licensed reporting his/her intention to discontinue the practice of law. The attorney is exempt from fees and Continuing Legal Ed requirements until such time that (s)he notifies the SC of his/her intention to resume the practice of law.
It's really not that big of a deal. I did it when I stopped practicing to stay home with my kids.

They are not practicing law, don’t need to have the licences active.

To: vharlow
from:
link ..Consider this: 1. President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is no longer a "lawyer". He surrendered his license back in 2008 possibly to escape charges that he "fibbed" on his bar application.
2. Michelle Obama "voluntarily surrendered" her law license in 1993.
3. So, we have the President and First Lady - who don't actually have licenses to practice law.
