Taxpayers urge voter say on county tax increases in Bill 172
The Taxpayers Federation of Illinois says tabling a committee amendment to House Bill 172 could raise the general fund taxing power in 26 counties under 15 000 population without voter input. At a March 24 hearing, advocates urged county voter approval, the committee approved the amendment, but on April 2 the floor moved to table it, sending the bill to third reading without a referendum.
