Support Tax Relief for Illinois Families
Low-income Illinois families deserve a tax break.
Right now, too many of our neighbors are struggling. Our leaders in Springfield have the opportunity to help. Expanding Illinois' Earned Income Credit and creating a statewide Child Tax Credit would give over 4.8 million Illinoisans a refund of at least $600 (or more!) at tax time.
Giving more credit to no-, low-, and middle-income families is not simply the right thing to do in this moment of crisis, but is also a smart economic choice for our state, as the proposed additional credit costs only a mere one percent of the State’s total budget and would create over one billion dollars in local and state economic benefits.
Contact your legislators and tell them you believe that Illinois families deserve relief. Urge them to support an expansion of the Earned Income Credit in the state budget. Learn more about the proposal here.
