95th General Assembly Tax Survey

We are pleased to provide our 13th biennial Tax Survey of the Illinois General Assembly, which examines the tax and spending bills of the 95th Illinois legislature. This is our most encouraging Tax Survey to date. While a number of smaller tax increases were passed, NTUI and its members beat back all the major ones and even got a tax cut approved. Together we have defeated every proposed state income tax increase for the past 16 years.

Spreading the Word For the Taxpayers

Stop Quinn's 67% State Income Tax Hike

Illinois Governor Patrick Quinn wants to raise your state income taxes up to 67%. He claims this is necessary to fill an $11.5 billion state budget gap. What he doesn’t say is that the state will receive $11.5 billion in federal stimulus funds, which would completely fill the gap.
Download our Stop the Income Tax Hike flyer to learn: what you won’t hear from the governor about the gold-plated pensions for local and state employees and ways you can stop government pensions from bankrupting our state.
Included on page 2 of the flyer is a list of the Illinois Top 100 Government Pension Payouts. Look for yourself to see just how lavish these government pensions are.
Download a printable copy of the flyer and share it with your friends, family, and neighbors.
