48th Out Of 50

More than 270,000 Illinoisans are looking for work. But an analysis of Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s progressive income tax proposal shows just how harmful it would be for Illinois’ business climate – the state’s job engine.


The nonpartisan Tax Foundation projects Illinois’ business tax climate ranking would plummet to 48th in the nation – and the worst in the region – under Pritzker’s “fair tax” rates. Only California and New Jersey would rank worse.

It’s no wonder family-owned businesses like Piasa Motor Fuels near Alton, Illinois, would look for relief across state lines. State lawmakers representing districts with strong small business communities should be wary of following the governor’s lead.
