This week, Governor Pritzker announced his income tax proposal. Sen. Tracy issued the following statement to the proposal.

“Without guaranteed protections for middle class families, I am opposed to the governor’s $3.4 billion tax increase,” said Sen. Tracy. “This is the third consecutive tax increase since 2011. We need policies in place that protect taxpayers, rein in the growth of government spending, and ensure we don’t need more tax hikes in the future.”
