No. The cuts were too steep. I would consider actually expanding our Medicaid program to include those currently working who however cannot afford health insurance.

Any increase in the state's flat rate for income tax should be coupled with property tax relief similar to that contemplated by HB 174 in the 96th General Assembly.

We need structural tax reform, tax modernization in Illinois. The corporate income tax must be competitive with that of surrounding states and we need to take up issues such as the streamlined sales tax, tax on internet sales and the single sales factor. We have deferred these issues for too long. We need to broaden our tax base and make it more fair and efficient.
Structural Tax Reform. Pass a capital bill more frequently to address the continuing need to maintain inferstructure.

I do not support expanded gaming in Illinois at this time.

The state of Illinois has the lowest per capita spending rate in the nation. We have the 5th largest economy in the nation, approximately the 20th in the world. There is wide gap between our willingness to pay (which is, again, the lowest in the nation) and our ability to make needed investments in education, health care and social services. When we decide to narrow that gap, we will then begin to compete as the global player we are capable of being and in the process increase the standard of living for the people of Illinois.

Yes and yes. I would support publicly financed elections and term limit leadership.

Yes.

HB 174 and/or modernization of the tax system, including structuring and collection methodology.

It is a matter of personal privacy. Should it come for a vote, like civil unions, I would support it.
