Lawmakers should voluntarily adopt a spending cap to give taxpayers the certainty they deserve.

Single-family homeowners in Rock Island County pay an average property tax bill above $2,800, according to a new report.

Illinois homeowners’ property taxes are among the highest in the nation. They are consuming more and more of Illinoisans’ incomes.
