Column: Governor’s tax cut talk generated headlines, not much else – Champaign News-Gazette*

Jim Dey: "Pritzker’s proposed (grocery sales) tax cut didn’t cost the state a dime because it came at the expense of cities across the state — from Chicago in Cook County to tiny bergs in deep Southern Illinois. ... As of 2 p.m. June 27, 278 communities had approved a 1-cent-per-dollar grocery-sales-tax increase, according to the municipal league. ... More communities, including Urbana, will join that list before the end of the year. Champaign will not. It approved a sales-tax hike, one not aimed solely at groceries."
