Attention Cook County IL residents! |
|
ACTION ALERT: Please Take 15 Seconds & Vote AGAINST Cook County Sales Tax Increase! If you got our Alert email last week or you've been keeping up with the local news, COOK COUNTY is planning to raise the sales tax to 10.25% in November. This will have a negative effect on the lives of consumers in Illinois and on retail businesses, as this will make our sales tax rate the HIGHEST in the country.
Please take 15 seconds to call Todd Stroger's office and petition the increase on the tax! CALL (312) 603-6400 You don't have to leave your name, so it's completely anonymous. Press option 1, then option 2, and then VOTE AGAINST INCREASE (OPTION 2). Please do this now...what do have to lose (other than your money)?

and if anyone was going to stop it, is sure wouldn't be toady. the good part of the is that it is a smaller increase than was sought, and cook county hospital, oops, i mean monument to himself stroger hospital, will be put under the control of an outside trustee. hopefully it will not go to the "heckova job hospital corp, inc.". it's a done deal, tho.
