Rockford - NTUI President Jim Tobin held a press conference in Rockford on April 28, 2009 to oppose Gov. Quinn’s tax increases.  The Conference was covered by all 4 Rockford TV networks.  Later, Tobin gave a 1 hour interview with WNTA Live Talk Radio Rockford, slamming Quinn’s proposed 50% income increase.    

Jim Tobin appeared on Fox TV News Chicago last night at 9 PM to oppose Cook County Assessor James Houlihan’s proposed 42% state income tax hike, as well as his proposed new statewide sales tax on food and services, e.g. haircuts, beauticians, auto repair, etc.   Houlihan’s proposal would also remove the 5% property tax credit, raising personal income taxes by more than 42% for homeowners.
