Gasohol tax break becomes law despite veto
The Illinois gasohol tax break passed over Gov. James R. Thompson’s veto, moving to exempt grain alcohol from the 4 percent sales tax and restore the tax in steps through 1985. The measure, approved 129-27 in the House and previously by the Senate, aims to boost gasohol use and support farm interests amid debates on timing and economic impact.
