AI Summary
This resolution expresses opposition to a progressive income tax in Illinois and to any attempts by the Illinois General Assembly to change the state's Constitution to allow for a graduated income tax system, which would mean different tax rates for different income levels, rather than the current flat-rate system where everyone pays the same percentage. The resolution highlights that Illinoisans already rejected a progressive income tax amendment in 2020, citing concerns about current economic hardships, high overall tax burdens, and the state's competitive advantage in attracting businesses. It also notes that other states have moved towards a flat tax system.
