Vote YES to give our small businesses a tax cut!

[Vote Yes for Fair Tax @YesForFairTax]

The Fair Tax amendment is a “critical investment in the future of Illinois’ businesses” and will help emerging young business leaders like Asher Mayerson stay in our state. #FairTaxNow

NEW: @thesouthern editorial board endorses the #FairTaxNow!

"Southern Illinois only stands to gain from a graduated tax structure"

[AARP Illinois @aarpillinois]

Small business owners like Bruce Montgomery support the Graduated Income Tax, because it ensures Illinois' financial burden doesn't fall on small businesses and those who can least afford it. #FairTaxNow

@stltoday says vote YES on the #FairTaxNow

"The Fair Tax amendment would alleviate that [state] underfunding while doing away with the inequity of taxing working people like they’re millionaires."

PSA: the Illinois Constitution does not ban a tax on retirement income. Current state law does that. You wouldn’t need to pass a constitutional amendment to start taxing retirement income, you would simply need to change the law. Same as it always was.

We can’t talk about economic and racial equity without talking about a tax system that is stacked against Black and Latinx people, and especially women. So writes Audra Wilson of the Shriver Center on Poverty Law:

Billionaire hedge-funder Ken Griffin has paid more than $1 billion on a cache of ultraluxury homes from London to New York. What’s behind the "unprecedented" spending spree? https://t.co/Oh7vcRbyKt

FLASHBACK: Fair Tax opponents called working people "takers", lauded business as "makers"

We're sensing a theme...

Illinois' broken tax system has made inequality worse and expanded the racial wealth gap. With the #FairTaxNow, we can start to set things right!

Illinois has one of the 10 most regressive tax systems in the nation. The Fair Tax would make the system less regressive, reduce income inequality and over time help narrow the racial wealth gap. https://t.co/VV5Fam7gLU

[Vote Yes for Fair Tax @YesForFairTax]

The Fair Tax amendment would require the wealthiest to pay a little more while cutting taxes for everyone making less than $250,000 a year. It does NOT tax retirement income, plain and simple!

[Neko Case @NekoCase]

Illinois voters! The 1st thing on your ballot—before the presidential race—is the Fair Tax amendment. Please vote YES for tax fairness & funding fairness (raise $3 billion for schools, health care and more). #ArtistsForFairTax @YesForFairTax

Labor Day is much more than a three-day weekend. Organized labor is building and powering Illinois, and this year, 💯+ unions are ready to fix our unfair tax system. #FairTaxNow
