State business climate ‘not universally bad’
Demmer says no to progressive income tax
DIXON – State Rep. Tom Demmer, R-Dixon, says he doesn’t want to “trash” the state’s business climate, but he notes there is room for improvement.
His approach is different from a freshman colleague, Rep. Mike Smiddy, D-Hillsdale, who represents Whiteside County.
At a forum earlier this week, Smiddy said the state’s business climate wasn’t bad, but that Illinois needed to do a better job to promote itself.
