Voters say taxes and economic concerns top the list of issues facing Illinois.
The Illinois Policy Institute’s newest Lincoln Poll found that more than half of Illinois voters selected high taxes as a top one-or-two issue facing the state. Next-highest was the economy, selected by 41% of respondents.
IPI policy analyst Lily Rossi said Gov. J.B. Pritzker and state lawmakers are not listening to these concerns.
Concern about the economy is up eight percentage points from last year.
Rossi said state leaders should ensure responsible budgeting by not spending more than taxpayers can bear.
The M3 Strategies poll has a 4.13% margin of error.
