(The Center Square) – Manufacturers say legislators at the Illinois State Capitol have done enough damage, and a progressive tax would be too much.

Last week, former Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn proposed a 3% surcharge on incomes over $1 million. The effort comes after voters in 2020 disapproved of changing the state’s flat tax to a tax with higher rates for higher earners. All the talk comes as Chicago’s mayor calls for “progressive revenue” from Springfield.
