Illinois State Senate District 54 issued the following announcement on March 24.
Illinois' current income tax filing deadline is April 15. Recently, the federal government has already pushed back the income tax filing deadline from April 15 to July 15.
State Senator Jason Plummer (R-Vandalia) issued the following statement urging Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker to do the same:
"The ongoing COVID-19 health crisis has created so many new and daily challenges for the concerned residents and businesses of Illinois, leaving many hardworking men and women worried about how they will support their families during this crisis. As the citizens of this state continue to navigate this unprecedented pandemic, I urge the governor to extend the state's income-tax filing deadline, like the federal government has done under the leadership of President Trump, to show empathy and help provide a measure of relief to our taxpayers now."
