Illinois suffers from one of the most unfair taxing systems in the nation. It fails to tax people relative to their income and the impact is clear: a structural deficit, inadequate levels of core services to Illinois communities, and a bruised state economy. These problems have only grown clearer and become exacerbated in recent months with the onset of COVID-19 and the ongoing uprisings for racial justice in the state. Join Hakafa and the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs (JCUA) via Zoom to learn about the campaign to pass the Fair Tax in Illinois and how we can take action as a Jewish community to more equitably and justly fund our state.
