During his State of the State Address Wednesday, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker announced his proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget plan including efforts to alleviate financial burdens caused by inflation.
Pritzker says the Family Relief Plan would freeze the state gas tax for the upcoming fiscal year. The state gas tax doubled in 2019 to 38 cents per gallon and is currently set to automatically increase every July 1st at the rate of inflation.
