- Could Illinois pause its gas tax hike? Deadline looms as Pritzker suggests possibility
Illinois lawmakers are considering pausing or reducing the state's gas tax hike amid rising fuel prices, though a decision must be made before their legislative session ends. Governor JB Pritzker has indicated the pause is an option but emphasized infrastructure funding from the tax. Indiana has suspended similar taxes, saving residents about $0.60 per gallon.
