Message to the Governor and General Assembly: Fully Fund LGDF – The Daily Line

Brad Cole, of the Illinois Municipal League: "As it stands today, just 6.06 percent of revenue from individual income taxes and 6.845 percent of revenue from corporate income taxes is being sent to support communities across Illinois; a far cry from 10 percent. In other words, after 40 years of success, the past decade has seen the state fail to honor its agreement as the local share of income tax revenue has been nearly cut in half."
