"Speaker Madigan: Stop Governing like a Republican. Don't Cut Corporate Taxes in Illinois!"
Speaker Madigan, you MUST organize your fellow Democrats in the Illinois House to make the current corporate and individual income tax rates permanent. If you don’t show courage and leadership on this issue, all Illinoisans will experience the devastating effects of $4 BILLION in budget cuts.
Why is this important?
Yesterday, Speaker Michael Madigan announced that he could not organize enough Illinois House Democrats to vote to extend current income tax rates for corporations and individuals in Illinois. Instead, he directed House members to craft a new budget with $4 BILLION in CUTS! That’s what Republicans do…Republicans cut corporate taxes and gut funding for schools, roads, parks and other things that matter to real people. Speaker Madigan is the most powerful person in Springfield, and we can’t afford for him to govern like a Republican!
