Illinois lawmakers look to avoid FAA penalties amid jet fuel tax crackdown

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- After years of noncompliance, Illinois lawmakers are moving forward with legislation that would require local taxes on jet fuel go to aviation-related projects, not into local coffers. The bill has failed in previous years. If it becomes law, taxes on jet fuel would be sent back to local airports and aviation schools. Illinois and many home-rule municipalities, notably Chicago, taxed jet fuel and used it for non-aviation expenses. The Federal Aviation Administration said in 2015 that tax […]

Illinois lawmaker proposes voter tax credit

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- An Illinois lawmaker is proposing a $25 tax credit for voters. Freshman state Senator Ram Villivalam (D-Chicago) has introduced legislation that would give a $25 state tax credit for anyone who votes in a general election. He says it’s been tried elsewhere and found to increase turnout. “We need more people to participate in our democracy,” Villivalam said. “That’s what this legislation aims to do.” He discounted the notion that a tax credit for voting was akin to a […]

Illinois currently has more than 650 local police and fire pension funds. Many of them are poorly equipped to pay their coming retiree costs.

COMMENTARY: You DO NOT have to play basketball in Illinois to succeed in pro basketball

I usually like reading sports commentaries from the Decatur Herald & Review's Mark Tupper. The most recent piece, titled "Illinois' value could soar with some success", goes through the struggles the Fighting Illini of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has had under basketball coach Brad Underwood. In two years with Underwood at the helm, the Fighting Illini are 26-39 and 11-27 in Big Ten Conference action (as of publication). Combined with the final three years of John Groce, the team […]
