Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, facing a costly reelection campaign, plans to tackle another foe — inflation approaching 7% — in a state budget proposal that would lift or freeze taxes on groceries and gasoline and give homeowners a one-year rebate of up to $300, an aide told The Associated Press.
“We have a growing economy. We have growing revenues,” Manar said. “At the same time nationally, the governor understands that the surge in inflation is taking a bite out of people’s pocketbooks. And it’s hitting working families hard in Illinois.” The governor’s address Wednesday will be in person for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, but lawmakers are still encouraged to watch on video elsewhere to limit contact on the House floor during the latest coronavirus surge.
He still has a few Bil of the country's taxpayer money squirrelled from uncle joe's handouts and this 1 Bil cut election ploy doesn't come close to matching the amount he & the gen assembly have raised taxes/fees in the previous years...
Ewwww did you have to post a photo⁉️
It's about time.
Maybe if he didn’t impose them in the first place…
Let me guess, if he's re-elected he'll just increase those taxes to level out the playing field. Vote this bozo out
How about some relief from having to look at that toupe.
Only person who is really making it and eating well is him . Chicagoan is trying their best to make end meet
I think it is gonna be the opposite of that
Must be a re-election year!
Cool, now let's lift this mask mandate bullshit so we get get back to our lives and take these off our children.
