(Chicago, IL) — Illinois Governor Bruce Rauner says a 32-percent income tax increase will be like hitting Illinois taxpayers in the face with a two-by-four. The governor yesterday pleaded with Republican lawmakers not to override his vetoes of both the five billion-dollar income tax increase and the 36 billion-dollar state budget that it fuels. The Illinois House will take up the vetoes later this afternoon.
