Legislators Share Concerns About High Inflation

A few State Representatives are saying that inflation is getting too high for Illinoisans.  State Reps Avery Bourne and Tom Demmer spoke recently about some bills that they are pushing through to help alleviate that inflation on families. Representative Bourne says that all prices are going up especially grocery bills.

 

 

A tax relief credit is being proposed.  Representative Tom Demmer says that this tax credit is needed not only due to inflation but also due to the supply chain disruption and high taxes already.

 

 

The expectation for cost is $1.4 billion. Representative Demmer says there are a few options for how to pay for this.

 

 

The hope is to address this in January at the general assembly before taxes get filed.

 

 

Representatives Bourne and Demmer hope that there will be mutual support and it is a bipartisan issue.
